Our Mission

Creating Smarter Summers, Brighter Futures

The National Summer Learning Association works to ensure all of America’s students, regardless of background, income, or zip code, can access and benefit from a high-quality summer learning experience every year.

Go from Good to Awesome

Our work is having an impact. NSLA provides support and training for communities and programs nationwide, tracks the progress of policy changes and government funding, and continues to identify key partners and opportunities to expand the summer learning movement.
