A gift card for foster youth participating in the Ending Youth Homelessness by 2020 initiative
Posted Jun 19, 2017
Ending Youth Homelessness by 2020; EYH 2020) is a committee reaching out to the youth in our community to explain and provide services, education and housing for youth 16-24. As a reward for their participation we will be providing each youth with a gift card.
We are really trying to reach these kids and give them something tangible and concrete to hold on to. Something that reminds them and makes them think about their community as someone that is there to help not abandon them.
Foster Youth is 24 years old and lives in NJ
Navigating foster care can be especially difficult for teens who just want to be "normal" kids. We try to always have gift cards on hand to give to kids entering foster care and those navigating through so that they always have a way to purchase their own personal care products. This really helps them get a sense of dignity and autonomy at a confusing and difficult time.
