New to the Power Hour? The Florida Afterschool Network launched an initiative focused on expanding the entrepreneurial mindset of Florida’s youth. This initiative will provide afterschool, summer and expanded learning programs direct access to resources, including evidence-based curricula, training and technical assistance to help students build workforce ready skills needed for the jobs of tomorrow. Our goal is to support local efforts to teach students how to recognize opportunities, take risks and innovate in the face of challenges so they are better prepared to participate in the workforce.

One Tuesday per month at 2:00 pm ET, these programs and providers, and those just interested in learning more, are invited to join us for a monthly power-hour session to get engaged, network and share.
