President Donald Trump is championing a significant initiative aimed at reforming the foster care system, with plans to sign a groundbreaking executive order this Thursday.
This new measure is designed to ease the transition for foster youth entering adulthood by providing enhanced access to education, workforce development, and digital resources. As part of this effort, the administration will partner with both federal and private sectors to bolster support for these vulnerable young adults.
The initiative, known as “Fostering the Future,” aligns with First Lady Melania Trump's “Be Best” campaign. It aims to address the alarming statistics that show only 50% of foster children graduate from high school and less than 3% achieve a college degree.
Scholarship opportunities for foster youth will be made available, specifically in technology sectors, ensuring they receive quality education and the skills necessary for financial independence.
Moreover, the executive order will allocate a substantial $25 million within the FY 2026 federal budget to support housing aid through the Foster Youth to Independence program under the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Trump's commitment to address the needs of foster children reflects his administration’s broader vision of supporting American families and empowering the next generation.
As he moves forward with these vital reforms, the president continues to demonstrate his dedication to improving the lives of those who have faced challenges, solidifying his position as a leader willing to tackle complex social issues.
