This training is a trauma-responsive approach focusing on communication skills, healthy outcomes, and positive experiences. This in-depth workshop will use activity-based learning, group discussion and multiple evidenced-based models to intervene with foster and TAY youth without shelter.
Transition to adulthood for children in the foster care system is immediate rather than gradual, as it is for most other children (Dworsky and Courtney, 2009). Because of this, foster care youth entering adulthood are more likely to experience homelessness after their exit from the system compared to their non-foster peers.
