Salt Lake County Youth Services
Afterschool Programs

“Provide youth with a safe and positive environment that helps youth grow academically, socially and emotionally.”

ASPgroup

Our Model

Youth Services’ afterschool programs focus on academic improvement and building positive relationships through adult mentorship, social emotional learning, and character development. Certified teachers and Youth Leaders are hired to support academic achievement and provide engaging enrichment opportunities through hands-on and project-based learning. Staff members work closely with each school’s administration to meet the specific needs of the school’s population. Our programs build prosocial opportunities that reduce risky behavior and support the success and wellbeing of Salt Lake County’s youth.
