After School Matters (ASM), a non-profit organization dedicated to providing out-of-school time programs for Chicago teens, has announced its summer program offerings for 2024. The programs will run between the weeks of June 24 and August 2, offering hundreds of opportunities across the city.

The summer programs are open to Chicago high school students aged 14-18. Each program is designed to encourage teens to explore new interests, build community, and earn money simultaneously.

In the previous year, ASM successfully provided opportunities for teens from the 20th District to delve into their interests, develop their skills, and envision their futures through programs tailored to their unique social and emotional needs. The organization partnered with hundreds of schools and community-based organizations, establishing a citywide network of support for young people.

Teens interested in applying can do so at www.afterschoolmatters.org/teens/apply. Additionally, ASM provides a step-by-step walkthrough video titled "How to Apply to an ASM Program" on the application page.
