After School Program (ASP)

Ontario’s After School Program (ASP) helps kids be active and healthy. The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport provides funding to non-profit organizations to run after school programs. The After School Program focuses on physical activity and provides a healthy snack.

 Programs may also include other activities like:

  • healthy eating and nutrition education (for example, label reading, snack and meal preparation, local food produce choices)
  • wellness and personal health education (such as bullying and violence prevention, tobacco and substance abuse prevention, building self-esteem)
  • local needs (such as academic assistance, arts and cultural activities, activities promoting equity, diversity and  inclusion)
