Mission Statement

LINKS For Learning provides after-school and summer enrichment activities for Park County’s youth designed to encourage success in school, a lifelong interest in learning and a commitment to community involvement.

About This Cause

For 25 years, the LINKS for Learning program has been a cornerstone of after-school and summer enrichment programming for Livingston and Park County families, serving over 100 children annually. Committed to accessibility, LINKS serves all K-5th grade children regardless of their family's ability to pay, providing structured supervision during the critical 3:00-5:30 PM window. Our programs foster academic success through individualized homework support and activities that build on current classroom concepts. We inspire lifelong learning through hands-on STEAM activities - from robotics to environmental science - and cultivate meaningful community engagement through service projects and partnerships with the Livingston Park County Public Library, Farm to School of Park County, the Senior Center, and various residential facilities in Livingston. Beyond supporting children's health through daily physical activities, nutritious USDA-approved snacks, and wellness education, LINKS creates a safe, supervised environment during the hours most challenging for working families. Our program enhances educational development through evidence-based curricula and collaboration with local schools, ensuring alignment with classroom learning. Critically, LINKS plays a vital role in local economic stability. By providing reliable, enriching care for up to 12.5 hours weekly during after-school hours and 48 hours a week during summer months, LINKS empowers over 150 Park County parents to maintain full-time employment. This support strengthens workforce participation across Park County by enabling parent productivity and supporting local businesses. In a region where affordable childcare options are limited, LINKS serves as an essential foundation, ensuring both children's development and family economic stability.
