Technical Assistance
Have you taken advantage of the free technical assistance (TA) for 21st CCLC programs on Y4Y? The Y4Y TA team accepts requests from any 21st CCLC State Coordinator and is able to deliver targeted on-site/in-person and virtual TA to your state's grantees, pending U.S. Department of Education approval of the request. The virtual sessions are 90 minutes and the in-person sessions are between 4 and 16 hours. These sessions are tailored to meet the needs of the requesting state. If you are a 21st CCLC program and are interested in free Y4Y TA, please talk to your State Coordinator.
