Council Member Rita C. Joseph inquires about the funding and structure of the summer program run by the Center for Family Life. The program director explains that they have different funding streams, including a 21st century grant, and that their program is not part of Summer Rising.
- The program runs 5 days a week
- Students are not mandated to attend this program
- Parents have given positive feedback about this alternative to Summer Rising
