Foster Care Home Tour - Examples for Older Foster Children, Tweens, Teens
In today's video, I showcase some things that may come up on the first day with an older child.
Every youth is different and will need something different from us. Here are some extra tips to consider:
- Some kids may be coming from group homes or residential treatment centers, or they may be coming back into care after being homeless or running away for a time period. They may have different needs depending on the situation.
- There may be some policies to follow as it relates to the documentation you must provide the youth. This can include: their rights, reproductive health information, or mental health handouts. Make sure you ask your worker what documents should be shared or made accessible to the youth.
- Some teens may feel more comfortable communicating through text or a journ...

A Foster Care System Where Every Child Has a Loving Home | Sixto Cancel | TED
In the US, youth in foster care are nearly twice as likely as war veterans to suffer from PTSD. Placed in foster care at just 11 months old, 2023 Audacious Project grantee Sixto Cancel experienced the faults of the system firsthand. Now, he's the founder of Think of Us, an organization working to reform child welfare by centering kinship care, or placing a child with an extended family member or a familiar adult. Learn more about his plan to help thousands of kids searching for a loving home with one simple, systemic switch.

I also included several important tips along the way that I've gathered from the thousands of foster parents that have shared their licensing experiences. These tips will save you time and reduce errors (and frustrations) along the way.

"Throwaway Kids" is a special Kansas City Star investigation published in December 2019:
A longtime advocate in Kansas City once told a reporter that foster care was “just a breeding ground for prison.”
That comment stuck with us and eventually led to this project. The yearlong investigation began with prisons and branched out into a more comprehensive look at long-term outcomes for children who age out of the nation’s broken, overwhelmed foster care system.

In today's video, I showcase some things that may come up on the first day with an older child.
Every youth is different and will need something different from us. Here are some extra tips to consider:
- Some kids may be coming from group homes or residential treatment centers, or they may be coming back into care after being homeless or running away for a time period. They may have different needs depending on the situation.
- There may be some policies to follow as it relates to the documentation you must provide the youth. This can include: their rights, reproductive health information, or mental health handouts. Make sure you ask your worker what documents should be shared or made accessible to the youth.
- Some teens may feel more comfortable communicating through text or a journal, so you can offer those as well.
- Don't forget to post crisis hotline numbers and the wifi password
OK What did I miss? Do you care for older foster youth? Let me know how you support them at the very beginning in the comments below!
