NJSACC Conference Sponsorship – Become an Afterschool Hero!

NJSACC is New Jersey’s Afterschool and Out-of-School Time (OST) Professional Network and our mission is to foster the growth, quality, and sustainability of out-of-school time providers, professionals, and organizations to expand access and opportunity for New Jersey’s youth and families. NJSACC addresses the challenges that the Out-of-School Time (OST) profession faces including equity, access, capacity, and connections towards creating a strong, valued profession benefitting youth, families, and communities.

NJSACC strives to contribute to a more diverse, equitable and inclusive New Jersey community through the following work:

• Build and support a strong, professional network for afterschool and out-of-school time providers, programs and professionals in New Jersey.
• Provide professional development, conferences, workshops and resources to meet the needs of OST professionals and professional organizations.
• Offer technical assistance, free or low cost, for the development, expansion and improvement of afterschool and OST programs throughout NJ. Technical assistance means that we are available to field questions, help OST programs and providers identify resources and activities, and provide guidance for continuous program quality.
• Work closely with state and local officials to define appropriate NJ State regulations and legislation.
• Establish professional development opportunities.
• Develop public awareness of afterschool issues.

NJSACC provides a variety of professional development experiences to meet the diverse needs of New Jersey’s afterschool and out-of-school time communities. NJSACC has a track record of quality professional development provided by highly skilled and experienced trainers and consultants. The professional development options range from the largest annual statewide conference for afterschool and out-of-school time on the east coast to localized mini-conferences and workshops throughout the state. Programs also have the option to arrange for a trainer to come directly to their location to train their staff. In addition, NJSACC offers access to online trainings so that providers can meet their professional development needs on their own time.

Your sponsorship dollars help us continue to provide innovative and high quality trainings, workshops and conferences. In 2025, our conferences brought together 466 OST professionals, who collectively earned 1,760 training hours, across more than 60 workshops.

These trained staff members reached and positively impacted approximately 62,415 youth in their afterschool and OST programs. When professionals share training knowledge with others, this figure grows exponentially and more youth are impacted.
