New Findings from Midwest Study: Outcomes of Foster Care Alumni at Ages 23-24


The Midwest Study provides a comprehensive picture of how foster youth are faring during this transition since the Foster Care Independence Act of 1999 became law.

These new findings look at the outcomes at ages 23 and 24.
