In this episode, Lynn Tonini facilitates a conversation between three individuals connected with organizations that help youth aging out of foster care find and maintain housing: Betty Beatty with Empty Frames Initiative (Everett, WA), Carla Cleeton with the Transition Resource Action Center - TRAC (Dallas, TX), and Angela Youtsey with Olive Crest (Silverdale, WA). During this conversation, we talked about different strategies to help foster youth find and keep their own housing after leaving care. We also discussed ideas for improvements to the foster care system that would help youth be better prepared for getting their own place to live.
