Throughout the spring production of 'The Music Man,' Palo Alto Players raised over $5,000 for us through their Players Gives Back program. We are honored to have been chosen as the beneficiary for their spring show. Thank you Palo Alto Players for helping us LIFT UP foster youth!

This Foster Care Awareness Month, our foster youth took the lead by organizing Move & Groove—an event for foster youth by foster youth filled with music, sports, and community spirit! 📷📷

We were excited to welcome Dr. Mary Ann Dewan, the Santa Clara County Superintendent of Schools, to our office today.
During the visit, we reviewed our latest outcomes report, which shows that 90% of our children who need academic support are receiving it because of our CASAs.

Thompson’s story highlights the crucial need for continued support and stability for foster youth. Budget cuts to these programs can be detrimental to the lives of the foster youth we serve. We hope that funding for these programs returns during California's 2024 -2025 budget.

Thank you for bringing awareness to the importance of continuing support after aging out of foster care. Providing ongoing resources for foster youth as they transition into adulthood is essential for ensuring they have the support needed to thrive.
