21st Century Community
Learning Centers (21stCCLC)



The 21st Century Community Learning Centers (CCLC) programs are federally funded partnerships between schools and communities that provide safe and exciting learning, health, social services, cultural and recreational programs before school, after school, and on weekends.

The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) has received seven 21st CCLC grants under the Beyond the Bell Branch (BTB) totaling over $21 million annually to serve almost fifty elementary schools and almost 20 middle schools.  In addition to this, BTB also has two grants from the high school-geared 21st CCLC program After School Safety and Enrichment for Teens (ASSETs) to serve 33 high schools annually.

Partners include large and national organizations, local grass-roots and community-based organizations, universities and foundations.

The 21st CCLC program strives to bring back the most at-risk children and youth into a safe educational environment that is inviting and one in which they feel that they can succeed.  Paid and volunteer mentors and tutors, as well as teachers working after-school, help to care for and educate students.  These programs include high school career academies and communication centers.
