    Summary

    The PowerPlay! Beyond School Grant is a program of the Illinois Association of Park Districts (IAPD). Funding and materials for this program are provided through the sale and subsequent renewals of the Park District Youth License Plate and through Friends of Illinois Parks.


    The Model Program

    The Power!Play Beyond School Grant Program involves implementing a model program that focuses on health, nutrition and fitness for children ages K-5th grade and 6th grade-12th grade. Each grant recipient must incorporate the core elements of the model program into their curriculum. Topics and materials in the model program were created to maximize the learning potential of participants in the program. Agencies will receive seed money to conduct a new model beyond school program or to enhance an existing one.


    The PowerPlay! Grant Program is designed to provide positive beyond school programs for

    youth ages 5-13. Beyond school programs keep youth safe and give them supervised and

    structured activities. The Illinois Association of Park Districts' PowerPlay! Beyond School Grant Program will provide resources for grant recipients and information on how to obtain additional materials related to health, nutrition and fitness.
