✨ We are excited to celebrate the release of the special issue of the Sage Journal: “Transition-Age Youth in Foster Care: Higher Education Enrollment and Use of Supports.”

Transition-age youth in foster care face unique barriers to accessing higher education. New research found that youth who remain in extended foster care and experience greater placement stability are more likely to enroll in college and receive Education and Training Voucher (ETV) funding.

✨ Creating meaningful experiences that inspire what’s next!

What an honor to help support Georgia CREW (Cultivating the Rising Experienced Worker) as youth in foster care from across Georgia build leadership skills, career readiness, confidence, and connections to networks and resources. Over the last seven weeks, we facilitated virtual learning sessions designed to help students grow personally and professionally.

Creating spaces where students feel empowered to grow and explore their potential is work we’re proud to be part of! Thank you to everyone who made this experience meaningful for these incredible young people.🎒

🎒 A closer look at college life

Earlier this June, we partnered with Albany State University (ASU) for a pre-collegiate summer program focused on hands-on college exploration.

During their time on the ASU campus, participants toured residence halls, classrooms, labs, dining halls, athletic facilities, and student spaces while learning more about what higher education can look like.

This experience offered students space to explore, reflect, and imagine their next steps. 🌟
