FosterClub's Quick Start Guide has been developed to provide an introduction to foster care and decrease common anxiety and fears about entering care.

Why this guide? We believe every young person in foster care deserves to have a basic understanding of the foster care system, knowledge about their rights, opportunities to participate in their foster care plan, and an opportunity to connect with peers who are experiencing similar challenges. After all - who knows better what your current life and future should look like than YOU?!

The Quick Start Guide features... 

• Step-by-step: what you need to know NOW
• How other teens are making it
• Famous people who spent time in foster care

The Quick Start Guide can also provide supportive adults with youth-friendly answers and offers conversation starters to help improve communication between youth and supportive adults during a traumatic time.
