The California Department of Education has announced a new round of federal 21st Century Community Learning Center (21st CCLC) grant awards which include funding for THINK Together to expand its programs to four high schools – Century & Valley High Schools in Santa Ana and Azusa & Gladstone High Schools in Azusa. Total funding is $1,180,000 per year for five years.These funds will allow THINK Together to offer its programs at public high schools for the first time. Previously THINK Together has served high school students through its community center sites in Costa Mesa, Orange and Santa Ana. Those programs are funded entirely through the generous support of individuals, corporations and foundations.
Currently, THINK Together programs are available to elementary and middle school students at their respective school sites in both Azusa and Santa Ana.
THINK Together has also learned its programs at Lee, Murray and Mountain View Elementary Schools in Azusa will receive another $345,000 per year in new 21st CCLC grants to serve students currently on the waiting list at those schools and provide summer programs.
