Foster Care Liaisons

A Foster Care Liaison is a college representative who is aware of the available resources for foster youth and can help answer questions that the youth may have. Most foster youths have to balance schoolwork with finding housing, going to court, and meeting with their caseworkers. They often experience a lack of support from family or outside resources. Foster youth benefit from having just one person to provide the information they need and to assist them to access resources that other students may not need, like housing and trauma support.
