STARS program boosts after school options in Anaheim
Anaheim spends 378000 this year to operate STARS after school weekdays to 6 pm. Kimberly Kelman says programs fill gaps in neighborhoods lacking space, homework help or sports. The 201 study cited long waiting lists and limited hours, spurring ACT Anaheim to fund youth services. Children like Fernanda Montejo read, sing, and play at Modjeska Park, improving English and social ties.
