Caswell Invited to Participate in Dan River Region OST Network

“As we continue to grow the Dan River Region Out-of-School Time Network, we want to make sure that you understand it is open and available to you,” was the message Cathy Gore emphasized during a visit to Caswell County on Monday.

Gore is the President/CEO of the United Way of Danville-Pittsylvania County, which is convening the Dan River Region Out-of-School Time (OST) Network with funding support from the Danville Regional Foundation. The stated mission of the OST Network, which launched in September of 2025 is to bring together a collaborative partnership of youth-serving organizations to enrich young lives through high-quality, out-of-school learning experiences.

What is an OST Program? Out-of-School Time (OST) is a supervised program that young people regularly attend when school is not in session, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This includes before- and after-school programs; specialty programs such as sports teams, STEM, arts enrichment; and multipurpose programs that provide an array of activities like Boys & Girls Clubs and YMCAs.
