Practice Perspectives
Addressing the Educational Needs of Older Youth - Access to higher education has become increasingly essential to obtain economic independence and success in today’s labor market. As the cost of living increases, the need for higher education will become even more important, especially for the 28,000 young people transitioning out of foster care. Unfortunately, young people in foster care have to face multiple challenges to access higher education. They often lack financial stability; access to secure housing; and critical resources such as health care, transportation, or emergency funds. Despite these challenges, more than 80% of foster youth hope to experience postsecondary education.
