| Project Description: |
| Currently, Hillsborough County Schools provides fee-based after school diversion and prevention programs, including a year-round summer school program for K-5th graders, at 64 sites throughout the county. This appropriation will provide scholarships for at-risk children who attend schools in the high crime, low income area of Hillsborough County formerly known as "Suitcase City," so that they may be able to participate in after-school prevention and intervention programming in their community. |
