Her bipartisan bills would make housing more accessible for foster youth and strengthen the Chafee program, the major federal program providing services to young people who are currently in or previously experienced foster care, providing support to them as they transition to adulthood. “It is so important that foster youth have strong support systems and access to stable, safe housing. But many do not. As co-chair of the Congressional Caucus on Foster Youth, I am committed to helping foster youth be successful as they age of the system. I am so pleased that my legislation passed the House, which is the first step in helping foster youth meet these critical needs in their lives. I look forward to this legislation becoming law and building on these efforts.” | 1 | 2026-05-21T06:28:16Z | 2026-05-21T06:29:43Z |
