VPM Passport Exclusive: “Aged Out: Finding Home”
Life for children and youth in Virginia's foster care system is often tumultuous and filled with uncertainty. Frequently, they are required to change homes and schools multiple times before the age of 18. At that point, youth not adopted into permanent homes must "age out" of the state's foster care system. Many then face the responsibilities of adulthood without reliable housing, strong job prospects or supportive relationships.
