    Abstract: The purpose of the 21st Century Community Learning 
Centers (21st CCLC) program, as authorized under Title IV, Part B, of 
the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended by the Every 
Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) (20 U.S.C. 7171-7176) is to create 
community learning centers that provide academic enrichment 
opportunities for children, particularly students who attend high 
poverty and low-performing schools, to meet State and local student 
standards in core academic subjects, to offer students a broad array of 
enrichment activities that can complement their regular academic 
programs, and to offer literacy and other educational services to the 
families of participating children. Present in all 50 states, the 
District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, and the Bureau of 
Indian Education, academic enrichment and youth development programs 
are designed to enhance participants' well-being and academic success. 
In support of this program, Congress appropriated nearly $1.2 billion 
for 21st CCLC programs for fiscal year 2016. Consisting of public and 
nonprofit agencies, community- and faith-based organizations, 
postsecondary institutions, and other community entities, 3,695 sub-
grantees--operating 9,252 centers--provided academic and enrichment 
services and activities to over 1.8 million participants.
