Welcome to Bea's Kids!
"I believe in order for children to break away from a destructive cycle so often experienced by the disadvantaged, they must receive a good education and have a safe place to get help with their homework."
Bea Salazar, Founder/President |
In Texas, 26 percent - more than one million youth - in grades K-12 are responsible for taking care of themselves after-school. Nationwide, more than 15 million school-age children are on their own after school. (Afterschool Alliance 2009)
