The goal of the BOOST Network is to increase the quality and knowledge of Out-of-School Time (OST)

The Borderland Out of School Time Network began in 2015 as an effort to coordinate and support collaboration and communication among out of school time program providers and community stakeholders in the Paso del Norte region. The BOOST Network represents stakeholders and organizations from West Texas, Southern New Mexico, and Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua and is the only bi-national, tri-state out of school time network to exist.
