After-School & Summer Programs

Triumph Steps® After-School and Summer Programs in our Community.

At Triumph Steps®, we believe emotional literacy is essential for every school and community. We partner with local schools and program providers to bring our research-based framework into after-school and summer settings.

Why It Matters in Schools

  • When students spend time in after-school or summer settings, those hours are rich with potential for growth – not just recreation. Embedding our emotional-literacy curriculum means children gain resilience, self-regulation, and a growth mindset, which support academic focus and healthier peer and adult relationships. (Based on our Schools program for K-12).
  • Schools that partner with Triumph Steps gain more than a curriculum: they receive a whole-community approach that includes students, educators, and families. This helps reinforce consistent language, habits, and routines across in-school and out-of-school settings.
  • For after-school and summer programs, combining academic support with emotional-wellbeing work helps keep kids engaged, reduces behavior issues, and builds confidence so they’re ready for the next school year.

Our Community Partnerships

We’re proud to partner with trusted local organizations and providers to implement these programs where they matter most:

  • Working with schools in the district to embed the Triumph Steps for Schools curriculum during after-school hours.
  • Collaborating with long-standing community partners such as Miami Dade College Summer Program (7 + years).
  • Partnering with Armour Dance Theater to support youth enrichment and emotional-literacy components.
  • Engaging with Miami Dade Parks and Recreation and Open Spaces program sites to deliver safe, meaningful summer experiences.

These collaborations ensure that our framework is delivered by teams who already know and serve our community – making the impact deeper and more sustainable.

Program Features

  • After-school/Summer Curriculum: Modules built around the Triumph Steps eight-step framework of emotional literacy – designed to fit into program schedules.
  • Educator & Staff Training: Program staff and educators receive professional development so they can lead with clarity, support emotional well-being, and manage student engagement.
  • Family Engagement: We bring parents/caregivers into the loop – giving them tools and language to reinforce emotional-literacy habits at home, creating consistency between the program and family life.
  • Whole-Child Focus: Academics matter. So does emotional well-being. We help weave both into after-school and summer settings, helping students stay engaged, connected, and ready to succeed.
