The New Mexico School-Age Care Alliance (NMSACA) is a not-for-profit membership organization of professionals dedicated to enhancing quality school-age care in New Mexico.
The NMSACA exists to develop, promote, and support quality care for all school-age children and youth.
*NSACA standards have been developed through a collaboration with the
National Institute of Out-of-School Time NIOST (formerly the SACC Project at Wellesley College).
NIOST's mission is to ensure that all children, youth, and families have access to high quality programs, activities, and opportunities during non-school hours. We believe that these experiences are essential to the healthy development of children and youth, who then can become effective and capable members of society. Our work bridges the worlds of research, policy and practice.
