BERLIN — The Berlin Afterschool Programs are joining in the nationwide “Lights On Afterschool” event again this year.

It is the only event that celebrates the afterschool networks across the country and the important role they play in the lives of children, families and communities. The Family Resource Center has worked to create a project this year to bring home and share with each student’s family.
