We believe it is essential for young people impacted by foster care and homelessness to play a leadership role in bringing about positive change. We offer programs that engage and train youth and young adult participants throughout the year in a menu of activities designed to promote confidence, create positive relationships, build skills, and provide practical leadership and advocacy experience.
