On Tuesday, January 26, 2010, the 12th annual PASEsetter Awards gathered more than 300 afterschool supporters - including leaders from the corporate, academic, political, and philanthropic sectors - to help PASE celebrate the difference afterschool programs make in the lives of the city's youth.

Every year, PASE recognizes the best and brightest of New York City's youth development professionals. Chosen from hundreds of nominations, the five PASEsetter Award Winners exemplify the dedication, innovation, and accomplishment that is the hallmark of the New York City afterschool field.

In addition to being honored at the annual gala event, each PASEsetter winner received a $5,000 award for her or his agency, a crystal award, and recognition in the PASE newsletter and on the web site.
