US: Housing Challenges for Youth Aging Out of Foster Care (Includes audio)
WAMU – August 09, 2017
For foster children, the arrival of their 18th and 21st birthdays can be scary. That’s when they age out of the state systems that have supported them. According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, every year, approximately 25,000 youth fall into that category nationally.
