What Respective Solutions Group does

Respective Solutions Group (RSG) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered in Ebensburg, Pennsylvania, that delivers free after-school and summer educational programs to K-8 students across four rural Pennsylvania counties. Operating as a sub-recipient under the Nita M. Lowey 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) federal grant program (Cohort 11), RSG currently partners with four school districts — All Saints Catholic School, Forest Hills School District, Purchase Line School District, and Cambria Heights School District — and operates from two physical locations at 948 Ben Franklin Hwy in Ebensburg (Cambria County) and 353 Buford Ave in Gettysburg (Adams County). Founded in 2001, the organization employs 101-250 staff and is led by President Andrea Dolges and Vice President Susan Sheehan.

RSG's core offerings include free after-school programming for grades 1-8 and 6-week summer day camps at select sites, integrating STEAM, environmental education, nutrition and fitness, mindfulness, and creative arts enrichment activities. Programs are delivered on-site at partnered school buildings and are funded entirely by the 21st CCLC federal grant at no cost to participating families. Through its Center for Families sub-brand, RSG also provides basic-needs assistance — including electric, heat, water/sewage, and rent support plus holiday gifts — to financially qualifying families in Cambria and Adams Counties, funded via partnerships with the Salvation Army, Ebensburg Clergy, Sheetz For the Kidz, and local charities.

The organization's revenue model is entirely grant- and donation-dependent, with no fees charged to participating students or families. Primary funding flows from federal 21st CCLC grants; secondary funding comes from community partners. RSG reaches families through school-district enrollment forms, a Wix-based website (respectivesolutions.org), Facebook, X (@RSGroup_Inc), and direct outreach via the Center for Families phone line. Enrollment is currently open for the 2026/27 school year, with programs running September 8, 2026 through May 13, 2027 at the Cambria Heights site.
