Make a difference in a child’s life in your community!

Educational Resources for Children, Inc. (ERfC) is a private, community-based, non-profit agency that provides academic, enrichment, recreational, and cultural arts activities for students during out-of-school-time hours.

ERfC has been working with the Enfield community since 1994, providing innovative services to families and children.

Our mission is to team with communities, schools and families to grow resilient children. Through innovative community collaborations, we help children learn, reach their goals, and contribute to their communities.

Our vision is to be the region’s premier choice for out-of-school-time activities, ensuring that all children are provided opportunities to learn, explore interests, and develop friendships in a fun, safe and encouraging environment.

ERfC began in 1994 as a small after-school program in Enfield’s Thompsonville neighborhood. More than two and a half decades later, we operate Before & After School Centers in Enfield’s elementary and middle schools that are open to all of the primary, intermediary, and middle school students in Enfield. Our Centers provide quality out-of-school time (OST) and summer programs for Enfield children, and family events & services to children and families in our community. We provide financial assistance to 70% of the families we serve.
