In any given query, if a field is not part of the GROUP BY clause, it needs to
be derived from an aggregate function, such as count(), sum(), etc. One thing
you might do is join the results of the query you already have with the
afterschool table again, like this:
SELECT a.count, b.* FROM (
SELECT count(*), address, organizati
FROM afterschool WHERE verified
GROUP BY address, organizati
HAVING count(*) > 1
) a
JOIN afterschool b USING (address, organizati);
