The Relatives

Evidence-based models don’t yet exist for every issue that families and children face. We’re committed to developing new approaches alongside our partners. What does this look like? Our latest Child & Family Well-Being newsletter highlights The Relatives, an agency that provides education and job training to young adults formerly in foster care and experiencing homelessness. Nearly 80% of young adults in the program raised their income by 10% within a year and 90% found stable housing.
