Abstract	While significant progress has occurred over the past several years regarding the expansion of the quantity and quality of after-school opportunities, the ambitious idea of "after-school for all" remains a distant goal. In this commentary, we push beyond some of the numbers to take a close look at questions related to access and equity, in order to surface tensions and share concrete recommendations for addressing concerns at the policy and program levels. To do so, we draw heavily new data from California Tomorrow and a handful of other reports and studies. Is there equal access to after-school programs? Is there equity in after-school programs? How can program planners and policymakers address access and equity challenges? (Contains 2 tables.) (As Provided).
