Defensa de los jóvenes de más edad a través del enfoque colaborativo de participación familiar
We are excited to share a new resource available on the Texas CASA program portal page, Defensa de los jóvenes de más edad a través del enfoque colaborativo de participación familiar.
This site includes many resources for staff and volunteers including:
· Collaborative Family Engagement (CFE) Strategies for Older Youth in Foster Care
· Timeline of Resources Available by Age Group for Older Youth in Foster Care
· Permanency Planning Meeting Information & Best Practices
· Preparation for Adult Living (PAL) Resources and Explanations
· Transitional Living Services Available to Youth
· Educational Support Advocacy
· Health & Disabilities Advocacy
Please share this new resource with any volunteer or staff working with a youth who is 14 or older. Our goal is to make sure that the older youth we are advocating for have a voice that is heard and a network that is there to support them! We want them to be aware of the resources they can access and know best how to access those resources.
