FOSTER YOUTH

Program Overview:

Foster Youth Services is a program designed to serve the educational needs of children in foster care. FYS professionals have the authority and expertise to track down "lost" transcripts and assessments. FYS programs also provide academic tutoring at school or in the foster home, tailored to each foster student's needs. Trained Foster Youth staff provide academic counseling, consultation and resources to foster children, foster parents, group home staff and school personnel so that each child's chances for school success are enhanced. Additionally, FYS incorporated programs that provide emancipation planning, employment search, and post-secondary education.
