This grant, offered by the Child Welfare Department, aims to fund innovative projects that enhance educational stability for youth in care. The primary goal is to build robust infrastructure capacity, ensuring these young individuals can succeed and thrive in their educational journeys. This success is crucial for facilitating permanency, including adoption, and providing essential post-permanency educational supports. Proposals should focus on fostering stronger collaborative efforts between child welfare and education systems to create an environment where children and youth can achieve their full academic potential and secure stable, supportive futures. Ultimately, this initiative seeks to strengthen the foundational systems that protect and educate vulnerable youth, leading to significantly improved life outcomes and successful transitions.
