Project Description
With support from the California Arts Council, A Step Beyond will maintain and expand its core dance education component. A Step Beyond (ASB) is a creative after-school youth development program whose core activity is dance education and performance. ASB serves a population of very low-income children and youth from North Inland San Diego County, providing dance, academic support, social support, counseling, and family involvement opportunities over a nine to ten year period.
Organization Summary
A Step Beyond (ASB) is a creative after-school youth development program built around a curriculum of dance education and performance. All participants, who enter the program in 3rd or 4th grade, engage in dance, receive academic tutoring and other assistance as necessary or desired, participate in support groups, and have access to individual and family counseling and limited case management services. ASB also offers college preparatory activities once participants reach the 7th grade, and operates a parent council.
