Foster Youth Bill of Rights

The Foster Youth Bill of Rights is a set of protections ensuring that young people in foster care have their needs and voices respected. It guarantees their right to safety, proper education, healthcare, and to be treated with dignity. It also gives them a voice in decisions affecting their lives, access to legal support, and the ability to maintain connections with family when appropriate. The goal is to promote their well-being, respect their dignity, and empower them as they navigate foster care and prepare for independence.
