<span style="font-size:12.0pt">A large body of research shows that out-of-school time has the most significant impact on the achievement gap. Out-of-school time meaning birth-preK before kids start schools, summer, weekends, holidays (including Spring Break),
and mornings/evenings when kids aren’t in school. Here is a <a href="http://partnerforchildren.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Infographic_final_web_optimized.pdf">

a video</a> that OregonASK showed at the <a href="http://www.oregonask.org/summerlearningOR">
summer learning summit</a> in Salem yesterday. Public libraries are beginning to address non-cognitive needs, such as hunger and needing a safe space, that can hinder achievement by becoming summer lunch sites, bringing summer reading to other summer lunch
sites, doing outreach literacy programs at low-income housing, and partnering with a wide-variety of community organizations to work together to provide wrap-around services for youth and their families. This article, handout, and video may be useful to those
of you advocating for support and/or seeking funding for library services that address the needs of economically underserved children, teens, and their families.
