Abstract	As schools and families deal with the rapidly changing local circumstances related to the coronavirus, afterschool programs are stepping up and tailoring their services to support students and address gaps: extending program hours, offering access to healthy meals and services, and providing care to the children of essential workers. "Afterschool in the Time of COVID-19" Wave 3 data were collected from September 28 to October 27, surveying 1,445 program providers representing more than 7,300 program sites in 48 states and the District of Columbia. Findings show eight months into COVID-19, three key trends are shaping the landscape of afterschool programs across the nation. First, many more afterschool programs are operating now than were in the spring and summer. Second, programs are able to serve only about half as many students as they supported before the pandemic. Third, the children being left behind are disproportionately those from low-income families. This brief is based on the third in a series of surveys of afterschool program providers to monitor the state of the afterschool field. [For the Wave 2 brief, "Preparing for Back to School and Navigating Summer in the Time of COVID-19," see ED610210.] (ERIC).
