I Want to Refer a Youth Aging out of Foster Care

It takes a team effort to help youth transition successfully to adulthood. If you know a youth who may be a good fit for Fostering Independence, we’d like to talk with you.

Please remember our eligibility criteria:

• Youth must have been involved in the foster care system
• They must be between 18-25 years of age
• They must be eligible to work in the United States .

Please note: Not all youth who meet these basic criteria will be selected for program participation. Residential participants will be required to hold, at minimum, a part-time job.
