Independent Living Services Providing information on upcoming events, services, and activities for teens and young adults in Child Saving Institute's Independent Living Skills Program

There are more than 300 19-year-olds who age out of the Nebraska foster care system each year, and they all need the same kind of support other teens are getting from their families. That's where Child Saving Institute's Independent Living Skills (ILS) program fills in the gap. Funded by Lincoln Financial Foundation and the Nebraska Children and Families Foundation, the program breaks down the ste

ps to independent living and puts them in order so the current and former state wards can make a plan. Child Saving Institute's program specialists provide mentoring, hands-on education, and ongoing support for such critical life skills as finding a job, budgeting, searching for housing, as well as building healthy relationships. Most of the referrals come from Project Everlast, a statewide, youth-led initiative committed to providing resources, connections and support to young adults as they age out of foster care.
