Thirteen years after its founding, the International Foster Care Alliance (IFCA) is embarking on a new project this year. Over the next year, we will host four symposia featuring 25 young leaders (many of whom are advocates) who have experienced out-of-home care in North America, Latin America, and the Caribbean. They will share their personal stories and discuss systemic issues and efforts to address them.　 For more information, please go to this web page: https://ifca-us.or

Young Adults with lived experience in foster care are invited to share their perspectives in two National Foster Care Youth & Alumni Policy Council polls. Your insights on entering foster care and transitioning into adulthood will help inform national policy recommendations. Participants must be 18+; five respondents per poll will be selected to receive a $100 gift card.
