This special "America After 3PM" report takes a closer look at the afterschool experience for children living in rural communities. Earlier "America After 3PM" reports examined how children spend the hours after school, documenting the participation in afterschool programs, the unmet demand for programs, program offerings, and barriers to participation at a national level. This special report focuses on the hours after school for children and families living in rural communities, and how they compare to children and families outside of rural communities. This report also serves to examine the ways programs are increasing opportunity in these often-underserved and overlooked communities, and what more can be done to make certain that all children, regardless of geographic location, are given the array of supports they need to achieve their full potential. The "America After 3PM" survey asked parents in rural communities a series of questions about their views on afterschool programs to better understand their perceptions, as well as expectations, of programs. A close look at the responses of rural parents reveals that, as with parents nationally, most rural parents are happy with their child's afterschool program overall and report that their child is taking part in a wide range of learning opportunities. Although the overall afterschool program experience reported by rural parents is very positive, certain program elements are not as prevalent in rural afterschool programs compared to programs outside of rural areas, in particular activities associated with technology. Findings show that challenges including the affordability, availability, accessibility, and lack of knowledge of afterschool programs emerge as the primary obstacles preventing parents from enrolling their child in a program. The report includes recommendations to help ensure that all children in rural communities have the ability to take part in quality afterschool programs that can help them succeed in and out of school.
