As children face unprecedented hardship and trauma, where do we turn for help? It's time to call on the one natural resource in this country that is both untapped and growing: older people. via @Philanthropy @EisnerFound @PackardFdn #Gen2Gen https://t.co/hbfuEnbSgU

Amidst #COVID19 we are reminded of our vulnerable populations and the needs of #FosterCare #FosterYouth and the importance of #FYI Foster Youth to Independence Initiative created to support youth aging out of care by the leadership of @SecretaryCarson

[Boston Bob @RobertPulster]

May is foster care awareness month and we can support these young adults with @HUDgov Foster Youth Independance Initiative. Housing Authorities, child welfare agencies, & homeless service providers can make a difference in the lives of these young people.

Being recognized by @REFCAtreehouse as a former #fosteryouth during #NationalFosterCareMonth supporting @SecretaryCarson @POTUS @realDonaldTrump and all of my fellow brothers & sisters currently in & out of #fostercare is an honor. @OJPOJJDP

[ARCHIVED ACCOUNT FOR Christopher Patterson @PattersonHUD]

According to the National Center for Housing and Child Welfare, about 25 percent of youth who age out of #fostercare will be homeless within four years. That’s 1 in 4 of these kids #homeless! We can do better than that, and @HUDgov's FYI is an important step in that direction.
