This document discusses feedback from foster youth on how to better support their transition to independence after aging out of foster care. Youth requested: 1) More opportunities for normalcy and responsibility while in care to prepare them through graduated responsibilities. 2) Individualized transition planning, life skills training, and check-ins after aging out for ongoing support. 3) Connecting with mentors and alumni to learn from their experiences and build support networks to avoid feelings of isolation after care. The document emphasizes the need for a gradual, personalized approach and safety net of support even after making mistakes as young adults learn independence.
