Our Future. Our Community. Our Kids.
A champion for all Washington County kids — increasing access to quality out-of-school-time programs that equip our children and youth for success.
Our Vision
“All children will have the opportunity to reach their full potential.”
Our Mission
“To increase access to quality out-of-school-time (OST) programs that equip Washington County children and youth for success.”
Who We Are
Washington County Kids (WCK) was established in 2009 to improve access to quality out-of-school-time (OST) programs that equip Washington County children and youth for success. Washington County is home to approximately 95,789 school-age children — WCK works so that every one of them can benefit from early learning, after-school, and summer programs.
We work with program providers, school districts, parents, civic groups, and business and elected leaders to expand awareness of the value of OST programs, improve communication, and serve as a centralized, county-wide hub and resource for our community.
