Foster Care to College
Foster Care to College is an unprecedented and visionary partnership of private and public agencies designed to support adolescents in Washington state foster care to prepare for, pursue, persist in, and succeed in post-secondary education and training programs statewide, regionally, and nationally.
Who are we?
We are public and private agencies who recognize that if we as a society are to improve the future of youth exiting the foster care system and provide these young people with viable opportunities for academic and personal success, we must work together.
The six agencies who have agreed to provide commitments of time, talents, and financial resources are:
- Casey Family Programs
- College Success Foundation
- Treehouse
- Washington State Department of Social and Health Services Children’s Administration (CA)
- Washington State Higher Education Coordinating Board (HECB)
- Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI)
