Student Summary:
Foster children are reaching the age of independence completely unprepared to survive on their own. The way foster children are educated must be reformed to better meet their needs so that they are well prepared to exit the foster program at the age of 18. Key changes can be mode at government and community levels that would drastically improve the foster children’s opportunities for success. Encouraging the development of strong independent and after school programs and increasing cross school communication can lead to measurable differences in foster child’s quality of life.
