Abstract
Encompassing two school years and the emerging pandemic, this study built on research demonstrating positive effects of quality out-of-school time (OST) programming. Among programs serving mostly communities of high socioeconomic need, implementing social and emotional learning (SEL) strategies was associated with better social-emotional ratings among predominantly elementary-age youth of color.
