What We Do

Our goal is to improve the transition from foster care to adulthood in Arizona. To achieve this we:

  • Create advocacy plans to improve foster care in Arizona
  • Give testimony about foster care at the Arizona Legislature
  • Represent young adults in foster care during presentations at community forums and conferences
  • Plan community events to increase awareness about support services and resources available to young adults leaving foster care
  • Participate in monthly board meetings
