#fosterStability covid-19 survey
CYC is excited to launch our #FosterStability COVID-19 Survey! This survey is intended for youth ages 14-24 yrs old who have experienced California’s Foster Care system. Our goal is to capture and elevate their experiences as it relates to COVID-19. The results will be shared with our brand new team of CYC members, the COVID-19 TaskForce who will shape and lead the organizations’ continued work on this.
Elevating Youth Voice and Engagement in TAY Mental Health Services
We are proud to share the third and final State of the Community report developed by our No Stigma No Barriers (NSNB) TAY mental health project. “POWER: Elevating Youth Voice and Engagement in TAY Mental Health Services” celebrates the work of the NSNB Board, CYC staff, MHSOAC, and community partners, and shares the perspectives and recommendations of the young people who have led the three-year project.
