Preparing Chicago’s Teens for Success
2013 ANNUAL REPORT
Working with After School Matters helped me learn more about college readiness, and it also helped me with writing resumes and job interviews. I think this program really helped me prepare for college.”
—After School Matters Teen 16 years old, Rogers Park

LETTER FROM THE BOARD CHAIR & CEO
Dear Friends & Colleagues,First, and most importantly, thank you for supporting After School Matters.
Whether you did so by giving financially, volunteering your time, advocating
on behalf of a teen, or simply reading this report — we are immensely grateful.
As you will see throughout these pages, we have much to celebrate here at
After School Matters. Teens who participate in our programs are achieving success
and realizing their dreams at higher rates than their peers who do not participate.
Still, we have much work to do.
As we look back on FY13, our first full years in the respective positions of
Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer, we are overwhelmed by the potential
of Chicago’s teens to ensure a world-class future for our city. Without your
continued support, that potential may go unrealized. As you will see throughout
this report, After School Matters has proven that teens from even the most
challenging backgrounds can accomplish great things if given the right opportunities.
By providing such opportunities, we create life-changing experiences.
The success stories, the impact, the smiles that you see throughout these pages
should keep us all motivated to continue this important work on behalf of
Chicago’s teens.
Thank you for all that you do.
Sincerely,
Mary Ellen Caron
Chief Executive Officer

PROGRAM
After School MattersClose to 200,000 teenagers call Chicago their
home. These teens are at the core of everything
After School Matters does.
They are the reason we exist—from those we currently reach
through our programs, to those we hope to reach next year
and into the future. Our impact extends beyond a single teen —
to their instructor, their family, their high school, their community,
and ultimately to the entire city and beyond. But at the heart of
it all is one teenager.
4
Chicago Teens MatterOur teens have an overwhelming array of choices
to make in the course of a single day.
These choices include what to do with their time once the school day is done,
or even whether to go to school in the first place. A teen’s choices will inform what
kind of a person they become —what kind of a student, friend, family member,
neighbor —and what role they will play in the future of this city and our society.
That’s a lot of responsibility on top of the many challenges our teens face every day.
The Community We Serve
More than 70% of After School Matters teens reside in Chicago’s 39 lowest-
income communities (out of 77 total communities), and 86% of After School
Matters teens receive free or reduced-price lunches.
6.9% of our teens come from Austin. This represents the largest community population within After School Matters. (Austin’s unemployment rate stood at 21% as of the 2010 Census.)
7.2% of our teens come from North and South Lawndale. (North Lawndale ranks 13th in NeighborhoodScout’s list of the 25 most dangerous neighborhoods in America.)
5% of our teens come from South Chicago and South Shore. (31.5% of South Shore households were living below the poverty level as of the 2010 Census.)

Teen Achievements MatterWhen teens participate in After School Matters programs,
they discover what they’re capable of accomplishing.
Often, these accomplishments demand to be shared with a wider audience.
After School Matters works to provide as many opportunities as possible to
showcase Chicago’s teens at their best.
When teens find their voices, they empower themselves. Our programs provide
a channel to get those voices heard, so that teens can encourage positive change
in their communities.
“After School Matters is a great program for teens… we get prepared for college, and it’s a great opportunity to learn about jobs.”

Our Impact MattersThe impact that After School Matters can have on teens
extends beyond their high school years and empowers
them to achieve success throughout their lives.
Freshmen On-Track
Students on-track at the end of their freshman year, in terms of core subject
credits earned, are 3.5 times more likely to graduate high school in four years
than off-track students. Freshmen On-Track is a better predictor of high school
graduation than race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and 8th grade test scores.
Over the past three years, After School Matters’ Freshmen On-Track rate has
risen from 76 to 85 percent, 4 percentage points higher than teens who do not
participate in After School Matters programs.

our Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and staff.
