About Us
Millions of urban youth lack access to out of school time programs that provide rich opportunities for growth, learning and fun. Fort Worth SPARC is coordinating the work of government agencies, private funders, health care entities, local programs and others involved in OST (out of school time) programming. Fort Worth, joined a cohort of eleven cities, as part of a Wallace initiative to innovate Out of School Time learning.
We have 903 Tarrant County square miles of children whose lives will be transformed by Fort Worth SPARC. Their transformation will depend upon, Tarrant County's ability to produce a “collective impact." Are you up for it? Our children are counting on YOU to provide opportunity during 87% of the day, which they are not in school! #opportunitygaps #livenlovefwyouth #powerof87
