505 1  Introduction -- Cities' Development and Use of Out-of-
       School-Time Management Information Systems -- Ensuring 
       Data Quality -- Providers' Use of Data from Management 
       Information Systems -- Conclusion -- Appendix: Survey 
       Administration, Sampling, Weighting, and Modeling. 
520    High-quality out-of-school-time (OST) programs have a 
       positive effect on youth development, but many cities have
       found it difficult to address the challenges of expanding 
       and improving the quality of programs offered to 
       underserved and high-need students. In response, The 
       Wallace Foundation sponsored an initiative to help five 
       cities increase collaboration, access, quality, 
       information sharing, and sustainability in their OST 
       systems. In many cities that provide financial support for
       OST, funding is funneled through a variety of youth-
       serving agencies that lack basic information about the 
       programs they fund. The second in this three-volume series
       describes how the grantees and three other cities used 
       management information systems to collect and use data on 
       OST programs, including enrollment, attendance, and 
       student outcomes. Cities' use of management information 
       systems to collect and report data on OST programs is 
       relatively new, so the experiences of the case-study 
       cities offer valuable lessons for the field. For example, 
       management information systems are capable of supporting 
       OST system improvement but require careful planning, the 
       use of data from these systems can lead to additional 
       funding and support, the customization of web-based 
       systems encourages their use, providing high-quality 
       training to providers increases the use of the systems, 
       and many providers are overburdened by requirements to use
       multiple management information systems, so eliminating 
       redundancies and coordinating data requirements can ensure
       more efficient program provision and reporting.
