Educational Success
College Student Support
Those in foster care with lived experience should be able to explore and meet their educational goals after high school. Foster Success provides the assistance and support to help you achieve your dreams.
Our coordinators are available to assist students how to navigate their higher education experience through monthly one-on-one meetings. They have access to key contacts on campus and can support students’ work through financial aid issues and are able to provide guidance when making academic decisions such as when to drop a class or remain. They also help administer Education and Training Voucher (ETV) funds.
Our Education Coordinators are divided by region and can be contacted by clicking on their names below:
“Meeting with my Education Coordinator helped me realize that there is someone out there who cares about me and how I do in school. Meeting with my coordinator helped me strive for the best grades I can get because I knew I would be praised during our meetings.”
