The Fostering the Future Act would give teens and young adults with foster care experience more help before and after they leave care. It starts services at 14, raises education aid from $5,000 to $12,000, and covers college, job training, apprenticeships, GED, and catch-up classes. It also expands housing help including move-in costs, legal guidance, mentoring, and support for pregnant or parenting youth, aiming to reduce homelessness and improve school and job outcomes.
