Measurable Outcomes
C
onsistent coaching and mentoring of foster youth
help provide a solid foundation for their future
success. Programs and guidance create longterm stability, independence, and opportunity
by breaking cycles of trauma and systemic disadvantages.
Your support specifically leads to:
Self-Sufficiency – Secure employment, housing,
education, and reduced reliance on public systems with
many youth obtaining employment within 12 months.
Education/Career Pathways – Youth aging
out of foster care who receive support through programs
like FSA are more likely to enroll in college or a vocational
training program compared to unsupported peers.
Healthier Lives – Fewer encounters with justice
system, unplanned pregnancies, and better physical and
mental health with reports showing a significant decrease in
anxiety and depression symptoms
Life Stability – Foster youth with access to life
skills training and support have a much lower risk of
homelessness within 3 years of aging out.
Stronger Communities – Youth become
contributors to the workforce, pay taxes, participate in civic
engagement, and become role models for other foster youth.
