watch over Foster Cares Fallen Angels. foster care system needs a
sweeping overhaul to save lives of children. he transition from high
school to adult life can be exciting, but also
challenging and even frightening. Young people are expected to live
independently, continue their education, pursue careers, establish
relationships, and participate in their communities. Meeting these
goals is only part of the picture for youth with disabilities;
additional social, academic, health, and environmental barriers must
also be addressed / The Little Water Park That could will provide this
transitional stage with enhanced tools.Aging out of foster care is
challenging for a variety of reasons,
including lack of family/caregiver support, confusion about services,
and lack of thorough, realistic planning. Child welfare typically
focuses on temporary child removal as well as reducing time spent in
foster care. Nevertheless, numerous children spend considerable time in
foster care, many remaining until emancipation with approximately
20,000 adolescents leaving foster care each year. We plan on reaching
out to as many of these youth as possible.To learn more about the
