About

The City of Richmond's Office of Children and Families (OCF) was established in 2021 and aims to ensure that Richmond is the very best place to grow up and raise a family.

The OCF's main priority areas are as follows:

  • Maternal and Infant Well-Being
  • Early Childhood Care and Education
  • Positive Youth Development
  • Out-of-School Time
  • Post Secondary Success

After-School Programs

OCF supports and coordinates after-school programming for Richmond Public School students every year.

 

Flyer for After School Programming with images and QR Codes: Our After School Programs offer elementary students a safe, caring, and engaging environment where they can complete homeowkr, enjoy creative activities, and build friendships. With a balance of academic support, play, and hands-on learning, children stay active, grow in confidence, and have fun every afternoon after the school day ends. $140 per semester (Fee assistance is available. Please speak with your site supervisor for more information.) Registration opens May 1.

2026-2027 School Year

Low-cost after-school programs will continue to operate at all RPS elementary schools in the coming school year.

Registration will begin on Friday, May 1 at 9:00 AM.
