Preparing Chicago’s Teens for Success

2013 ANNUAL REPORT

Working with After School Matters helped me learn more about college readiness, and it also helped me with writing resumes and job interviews. I think this program really helped me prepare for college.”

—After School Matters Teen 16 years old, Rogers Park

LETTER FROM THE BOARD CHAIR & CEO

Dear Friends & Colleagues,First, and most importantly, thank you for supporting After School Matters.

Whether you did so by giving financially, volunteering your time, advocating

on behalf of a teen, or simply reading this report — we are immensely grateful.

As you will see throughout these pages, we have much to celebrate here at

After School Matters. Teens who participate in our programs are achieving success

and realizing their dreams at higher rates than their peers who do not participate.

Still, we have much work to do.

As we look back on FY13, our first full years in the respective positions of

Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer, we are overwhelmed by the potential

of Chicago’s teens to ensure a world-class future for our city. Without your

continued support, that potential may go unrealized. As you will see throughout

this report, After School Matters has proven that teens from even the most

challenging backgrounds can accomplish great things if given the right opportunities.

By providing such opportunities, we create life-changing experiences.

The success stories, the impact, the smiles that you see throughout these pages

should keep us all motivated to continue this important work on behalf of

Chicago’s teens.

Thank you for all that you do.

Sincerely,

Mary Ellen Caron

Chief Executive Officer

NUMBER OF

TEENS IN EACH

PROGRAM

After School MattersClose to 200,000 teenagers call Chicago their

home. These teens are at the core of everything

After School Matters does.

They are the reason we exist—from those we currently reach

through our programs, to those we hope to reach next year

and into the future. Our impact extends beyond a single teen —

to their instructor, their family, their high school, their community,

and ultimately to the entire city and beyond. But at the heart of

it all is one teenager.

4

Chicago Teens MatterOur teens have an overwhelming array of choices

to make in the course of a single day.

These choices include what to do with their time once the school day is done,

or even whether to go to school in the first place. A teen’s choices will inform what

kind of a person they become —what kind of a student, friend, family member,

neighbor —and what role they will play in the future of this city and our society.

That’s a lot of responsibility on top of the many challenges our teens face every day.

The Community We Serve

More than 70% of After School Matters teens reside in Chicago’s 39 lowest-

income communities (out of 77 total communities), and 86% of After School

Matters teens receive free or reduced-price lunches.

6.9% of our teens come from Austin. This represents the largest community population within After School Matters. (Austin’s unemployment rate stood at 21% as of the 2010 Census.)

7.2% of our teens come from North and South Lawndale. (North Lawndale ranks 13th in NeighborhoodScout’s list of the 25 most dangerous neighborhoods in America.)

5% of our teens come from South Chicago and South Shore. (31.5% of South Shore households were living below the poverty level as of the 2010 Census.)

Teen Opportunities MatterAfter School Matters provides a teen with an opportunity to

make one great choice —to participate in a program that can

lead to life-changing experiences.

Our unique and nationally-recognized program model incorporates project-based

learning and 21st Century Skill development into all programs across five content

areas: arts, communications, science, sports and technology. This gives teens the

tools they’ll need to apply critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, social

awareness and other crucial skills to their programs and day-to-day lives.

to participate in productive and engaging activities. These

programs help teens to prepare for success in college and

careers, and to see how bright their futures can be.

Teen Achievements MatterWhen teens participate in After School Matters programs,

they discover what they’re capable of accomplishing.

Often, these accomplishments demand to be shared with a wider audience.

After School Matters works to provide as many opportunities as possible to

showcase Chicago’s teens at their best.

When teens find their voices, they empower themselves. Our programs provide

a channel to get those voices heard, so that teens can encourage positive change

in their communities.

“After School Matters is a great program for teens… we get prepared for college, and it’s a great opportunity to learn about jobs.”

—After School Matters Teen 15 years old, Avondale

The After School Matters True Star Editorial

program produces a quarterly magazine

geared toward urban youth ages 12–21.

Braylyn’s stellar writing and interview skills

provided her with the unique opportunity

to interview Mellody Hobson, Chair of

After School Matters and President of Ariel

Investments, for the Spring 2013 issue of

After high school, Braylyn plans to

attend college to study journalism and

Program Providers & Instructors MatterOur dedicated and talented instructors are professionals

in their own rights and experts in their fields.

These instructors provide programs both independently and through community-

based organizations. They support our teens’ success from the beginning to the

end of a program, and often beyond.

engaging programs, After School Matters regularly provides opportunities for

Our Impact MattersThe impact that After School Matters can have on teens

extends beyond their high school years and empowers

them to achieve success throughout their lives.

Freshmen On-Track

Students on-track at the end of their freshman year, in terms of core subject

credits earned, are 3.5 times more likely to graduate high school in four years

than off-track students. Freshmen On-Track is a better predictor of high school

graduation than race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and 8th grade test scores.

Over the past three years, After School Matters’ Freshmen On-Track rate has

risen from 76 to 85 percent, 4 percentage points higher than teens who do not

participate in After School Matters programs.

What Really MattersAs long as teens call Chicago their home, After School

Matters will help them make the most of that home.

We will support them through an exciting time in their lives,

and we will help them to envision how bright the rest of

their lives can be. That’s what really matters to us—that

teens realize their unlimited potential and find success

now and in their futures.

We cannot do this without your support, including

our Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and staff.

Each of you matters so much to us. Most importantly,

each of you matters to our teens.
