With support from the Morton K. and Jane Blaustein Foundation and the T. Rowe Price Foundation, the National Summer Learning Association (NSLA) and the Family League of Baltimore City (Family League) have collaborated to begin system-building efforts in the city. Family League serves as an architect of change in Baltimore by promoting data-driven, collaborative initiatives, and aligning resources to create lasting outcomes for children, families, and communities. To launch system-building efforts, NSLA and Family League assessed Baltimore's summer learning landscape and convened other community stakeholders to develop strategies for increasing access to and the quality of summer programming across the city. The community assessment defined summer learning opportunities as organized academic and/or enrichment activities for pre-K through 12th grade students. To support ongoing strategic planning around summer, NSLA and Family League convened two groups, a Summer Steering Committee and a Summer Provider Group. The Summer Steering Committee has met every two months and includes representatives from the Mayor's Office, Baltimore City Public Schools, the Department of Recreation and Parks, the Enoch Pratt Free Library, other city agencies, local foundations, and a representative of summer learning program providers. The steering committee used NSLA's Community Indicators of Effective Summer Learning Systems framework to guide the development of policy recommendations. The Summer Provider Group met every two months, offering participating providers a chance to review the data analyses, raise questions about needs and assets, and review the Summer Steering Committee's proposed strategies for the future. In response to the Provider Group's recommendations, Family League began to coordinate summer trainings and provide more centralized communication on upcoming summer opportunities for summer 2014, with the intention to offer additional training opportunities for summer programs in future years. Overall, the assessment and planning process positions Baltimore well for progress towards coordinated action around summer learning loss. This report highlights the findings of the community assessment, and documents the strategies that emerged from the deliberations of the Steering Committee and Provider Group on how to enhance and institutionalize summer learning in Baltimore.
