It is important for youth to have a sense of security and stability in their lives to better assist them in accomplishing their goals. This session, led by John Burton Advocates for Youth (JBAY), will highlight essential resources available to non-minor dependents and young people exiting foster care. Attendees will learn about practical tools and supports—including housing programs, education access, and tax relief—that help promote long-term stability and success for youth navigating the path to independence.
