1 EMBARK: COLLEGE ACCESS AND SUPPORT FOR HOMELESS/FOSTER YOUTH David Meyers Lori Tiller November 3, 2013
2 Goals for today: Understand specific challenges that homeless/foster youth face in accessing and persisting in college Understanding of the national response What is Georgia EMBARK? Discussion
3 What is Social Capital?
4 Definition of Homeless/Unaccompanied youth Individuals whose nighttime residence is NOT: Fixed: stationary, permanent, and not subject to change Regular: used on a predictable, routine, or consistent basis Adequate: sufficient for meeting both the physical and psychological needs typically met in the home (42 U.S.C A(2)(B)(i)) Unaccompanied Homeless Youth (UHY): Homeless and not in the physical custody of a parent or guardian; in practical terms, this means the youth does not live with the parent or guardian.
5 Definition of foster youth Foster care means 24-hour substitute care for children placed away from their parents or guardians and for whom the State agency has placement and care responsibility. This includes, but is not limited to, placements in foster family homes, foster homes of relatives, group homes, emergency shelters, residential facilities, child care institutions, and preadoptive homes.
6 Federal grant programs DOE Services for At Risk Youth Populations Homeless Education Program (McKinney- Vento) Neglected and Delinquent Program Title 1 and Other Title Programs There is no specific federal grant program to support youth in foster care
7 Numbers for the state of Georgia Foster Youth in Georgia: 8,500+ children in foster care 2,229 youth between 13 and 17 (28% of total population) 75% of foster care students function below grade level. 15% of foster care students graduate with a high school diploma. Homeless Children In Georgia: FY11 grade 12 homeless youth = 1,603 (Unaccompanied Homeless Youth included in that total = 395 or 25 percent) Number of homeless and unaccompanied youth that graduated in FY11 = 1,046 (65 percent)
8 Foster Youth and Homeless/Unaccompanied statistics Foster Youth On average, youth in GA's foster care move 7-10 times. An average of 4-6 months of educational progress lost with every change of schools. 70% who attend college go to a technical or community college. 3-6% of foster care students earn a bachelor s degree (not a national figure). Homeless/Unaccompanied Youth In one year, 42% transferred schools at least once. Of these, 51% transferred twice or more, and 28% will attend three plus schools in one year. With each change in schools, it is estimated that a student is set back academically by an average of four to six months.
9 Strategies to prepare homeless/foster youth for transitioning to college Creation of a network of post-secondary institutions who communicate the specific needs of this population Creating on campus programming Increased opportunities for exposure to college environments such as pre-collegiate experiences Training, coaching, and mentoring Develop a section of GA College411 that is specifically designed for foster/homeless youth Bring Apply to College and FAFSA events to ILP groups and group homes
