The Street Administration's, Children's Investment Strategy (CIS), is an unprecedented City effort to improve the well-being of children and youth through effective youth development activities in the non-school hours and preventive services to strengthen families, particularly the relationship between parents and children. Through an array of new and expanded services, combined with a strong focus on performance, accountability and targeting of services, the CIS aims to improve the health, safety and school performance of Philadelphia's young people. After-school programs include a wide variety of enrichment activities that traditionally take place between the hours of 3:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. These programs help school-age children build emotional, social, and academic skills, and can include extra learning activities, homework assistance, employment or skills training, and structured cultural and sports activities.
