Advocacy for LearningWorks

June 11, 2025

We are reaching out to our community with a special request.

Over the years, we have been fortunate to secure public funding for our alternative and supplemental educational programs and have judiciously used these federal and state resources to positively impact our students and our communities. Like many non-profits across the country, we are working diligently to find our way forward as many of these vital funding sources are threatened in the pending federal budget.

Will you contact our congressional delegation to advocate for continued funding of AfterSchool by the 21st Center Community Learning Center grants and of YouthBuild by the Department of Labor? Urge them to oppose the proposed budget cuts for these grants that would seriously jeopardize highly successful programs in Maine.
