Foster Care Education Program

The Foster Care Education Program is dedicated to meeting students' unique educational needs through collaboration with students, caregivers, schools, child welfare agencies, and legal advocates. 

Our program is designed to provide guidance and education on the rights of students in foster care, to work with each student’s school to increase the level of understanding of the student’s academic and emotional needs, and to advocate for equal access to resources afforded their peers.
