Youth Advisory Boards and Youth Councils across the country are proving to be catalyst for change for the youth who participate, for the communities they impact, and for foster care reform.
Now is time to join the FosterClub Network. When your youth group joins the Network, you'll receive access to a list of Network benefits, including your own website hosted on FosterClub.com. You'll also be able to connect and learn from other Youth Boards across the country. Best of all - it's free!
FosterClub staff member Lupe is available to answer and questions you have about this program. Feel free to e-mail Lupe @ lupe@fosterclub.com with any questions.
Instructions: Click on a marker to see more information about the group, or scroll to the listing at the bottom of this page. Don't see your group listed? Contact steve@fosterclub.com
