Based on the statistics above, clearly foster youth need more help than they are presently receiving.
It's estimated that 24,000 foster teens will age out of foster care in 2014. What the statistics above don't show is the incredible cost both in services for children while in foster care and the billions of dollars that will be spent to help them once they age out.
One way to help foster children is to support efforts to find their family members. This will help ensure that these kids don't become another statistic leading lives of desperation and homelessness.
We can do better. Foster youth deserve better.
Do it for the children,
