The EDGE program offers out-of-school enrichment opportunities for children and youth (grades 1-12) to experience, develop, grow, and excel by participating in cutting-edge art, fitness, life skills and adventure activities, known as Art EDGE!, Fit EDGE!, Life EDGE! and Adventure EDGE!

Art EDGE! Promotes learning-by-doing and focuses on the development of lifetime skills through exposure to the arts. Art EDGE! Activities increase creative development while building self-esteem.

Fit EDGE! Educates and encourages children and youth to incorporate a healthier lifestyle through physical activity and nutritional awareness programs.

Life EDGE! Imparts upon children and youth the skills needed for life-long growth as well as the exploration of future career fields.

Adventure EDGE! Encourages children and youth to embrace the outdoors and nature while being exposed to activities that stimulate relaxation.

The EDGE! Framework provides the Army's Child, Youth & School Services extracurricular enrichment options in Family and MWR program settings for youth of military and DoD civilians.
