Youth in Foster Care

Youth in foster care are young individuals who have been removed from their biological families due to safety concerns or neglect, and placed in temporary care with trained caregivers or foster families. They often face challenges related to trauma, instability, and navigating complex legal and emotional systems. Foster care aims to provide a safe and supportive environment while working toward permanent solutions, such as reunification, adoption, or guardianship. These youth may access various support services to help them develop resilience, achieve stability, and prepare for independence.
