COUNTY TO DEVELOP CENTRALIZED RESOURCE
HUB FOR TRANSITIONAL AGE FOSTER YOUTH
LOS ANGELES COUNTY – The Board of
Supervisors unanimously approved a motion by
Supervisor Kathryn Barger to create an online
Centralized Transitional Age Youth (TAY)
Hub to provide vital access to programs and
services to youth, caregivers, social workers and
advocates.
The proposed online Centralized TAY Hub
will improve the county’s ability to serve TAY as
they age out of the foster care system by helping
them connect to education, career and housing
resources.
“The county has created countless programs
over the years to provide valuable job training,
access to transportation, educational stability
and other services to foster youth. Yet, we
continue to have a number of Transitional Age
Youth exit out of the child welfare system facing
poor outcomes and at risk of becoming another
devastating statistic of homelessness, substance
abuse addiction and mental health issues,”
Supervisor Kathryn Barger said. “We need to
develop a coordinated system so youth know
what is available to them and are connected
to the right services at the right time to enrich
their lives.”
The 4-0 vote gave the Chief Executive Office
the directive to explore means to develop
and launch the Hub, coordinate with the
Office of Child Protection and other relevant
departments and agencies, and develop
Management Appraisal Performance Program
goals to ensure streamlined and effective service
delivery.
Department of Children and Family Services
Director Bobby Cagle cited that there are about
10,000 TAY in Los Angeles County who would
benefit from this program.
“We have to do what we can to provide them
with the tools and resources they need so they
can achieve their dreams and live the lives
they hope to lead when they reach adulthood,”
Cagle said. “As with any vulnerable population,
we have learned that individual departments
cannot effectively serve a child in isolation.
We know that enhanced coordination, along
with the better integration of resources, will
improve services for our foster youth and help
them achieve self-sufficiency.”
