NFYI’s goal is to ensure foster youth voices are represented when decision makers are talking about creating legislation to address issues that impact children and families in foster care. NFYI believes every issue is a child welfare issue and it is our aim to ensure foster youth voices are not left out of vital conversations. Whether the topic is racial justice, global warming, immigration, health care, or the economy, the child welfare system is impacted.
The National Foster Youth Institute is a youth development organization that lifts up foster youth voices to transform the child welfare system.
