Foster Youth Summit Report – 2023

The 2023 Foster Youth Summit was a first-time initiative by the Foster and Adoptive Parent Advocacy Center (FAPAC) to bring together teens approaching or at the point of aging out of the foster care system. This initiative was conceived while working with foster parents who identified that youth exiting the foster care system sometimes return to their homes, asking for support.
