New Research: More Parents Enrolling Children in Summer Learning ProgramsWith increased awareness of the problem of summer learning loss, new research from the forthcoming Afterschool Alliance's America After 3pm report demonstrates expanding support for summer learning programs among parents. Survey respondents reported: * Participation in summer learning programs is up to 33%. * Demand for summer learning programs is high; 51% of parents surveyed say they want their children to participate in a summer learning program. * Support for public funding of summer programs has increased; 86% of parent support public funding. * The cost of summer programs raises concerns about equity. While 13% of families report their summer program was offered at no cost, the average weekly cost among those who paid for summer programs in 2013 was $250. That puts summer learning opportunities out of reach for far too many children and families. A succinct one page summary of the findings is available at
