SEN. NEEDLEMAN HIGHLIGHTS NEW AFTER-SCHOOL FUNDING FOR DEEP RIVER INCARNATION CENTER

This week, State Senator Norm Needleman (D-Essex) highlighted the state’s announcement of $100,000 in additional funding to support after-school programs at Deep River’s Incarnation Center.

Administered through the state Education Department’s After-School Grant Program, the funds will allow for new growth in local after-school programs like the Incarnation Center’s Nature’s Playground program.

“For more than a century, Incarnation Camp has provided priceless resources and opportunities for countless youth from Connecticut and beyond, and these funds will support its continued efforts to provide growth and leadership opportunities for students,” said Sen. Needleman. “I’m grateful to state leaders for their continued and tireless support of our region.”

This additional funding will support and promote new opportunities for students to continue to learn play and grow outside of a traditional school day and provide them with safe environments before and after classes end.

The Incarnation Center offers after-school programs for elementary school-aged children in Middlesex County.
