About this Event
Every year, thousands of youth exit the foster care system without a stable home. Our goal is to unite the public and private sectors to create housing pathways that empower independence and build generational stability.
Our Mission
Every year, thousands of youth exit the foster care system without a stable home. Our goal is to unite the public and private sectors to create housing pathways that empower independence and build generational stability.
Why This Matters
- Over 20% of youth aging out of foster care experience homelessness within 18 months.
- Many lack financial literacy, employment connections, and affordable housing access.
- Real estate professionals and community partners can bridge this gap together.
