The First Place Fund for Youth
First Place for Youth is dedicated to empowering foster youth aged 18 to 25 by providing essential resources and support aimed at fostering self-sufficiency and responsible adulthood. Their programs, such as the nationally recognized My First Place, include housing, case management, education, and employment assistance, ensuring participants have the skills needed for a successful transition into independent living.
By focusing on data-driven research and policy advocacy, First Place for Youth drives systemic improvements within the foster care system to enhance the lives of young individuals. Committed to inclusivity, 90% of the youth served identify as Black, Indigenous, and people of color, with a proven track record of high success rates in education and housing stability.
