Foster Youth Incorporated
Foster Youth Incorporated (F.Y.I.) is a student group on campus for any students who are in the foster care system or who have been in it at any point during their teenage years, even if they are no longer in the system. Our goal is to provide extra support for students who find themselves in sometimes difficult circumstances, including:
- School supplies
- Teacher support by assigning each student a mentor on campus
- Monthly/bi-monthly luncheons (with free pizza!) with guest speakers, activities, and a chance to hang out with other F.Y.I. students in a safe and supportive environment
- Field trips and awards for students who meet attendance and academic criteria
- Resources and information about general career, college, and financial aid information, and special resources specifically for students in the foster care system.
If you are a student who is in or has been in the foster care system since age 13 (or if you know anyone who matches this description) please consider joining us! Above all else, we support each other, provide resources, eat pizza, and have fun hanging out together.
Please see or contact Ms. Buss in G706 for further information.
