Item Description
Most youth and families receiving services through AFS are experiencing poverty and lack the economic resources necessary to experience a minimal living standard for housing, food, transportation, and medical care. AFS is uniquely positioned to help overcome these needs in a direct and right-sized way but doesn’t have other funding to address them.
When youth age out of foster care, they need support transitioning from a foster family to independent living. This can be very challenging in the Bay Area, and unfortunately, many end up on the streets. AFS helps to connect youth to other agencies and support programs but also has identified distinct gaps that create critical needs such as financial management and independent living skills.
Similarly, as youth enter homes - either foster or reunite with their families - there are criteria for a safe home environment but not always the funds to support creating them.
How Fund-a-Need may assist youth and their families
- housing
- food assistance
- gift cards for home goods
- gas
- groceries
- utilities
- monetary assistance to provide a healthy and safe living environment assistance with education expenses and job skills training
