Independent Living

Youth and Young Adult Services provides programs that guide and support foster youth and alumni of foster care - young adults between the ages of 15+30 days to 23 for eligibility, as they transition from foster care to self-sufficiency. Through group training, one-on-one coaching, and adult and peer mentors, youth receive support to pursue their education, train for employment, learn financial literacy, and develop critical life skills. These include creating healthy relationships, self-advocacy, and maintaining support networks.
