The Los Angeles Foster Power Coalition (California Youth Connection, Journey House, Los Angeles Opportunity Youth Collaborative, and National Foster Youth Institute) gathered at Journey House on Saturday for a day of learning, connection, and celebration. The event began with icebreakers, followed by a "How Government Works" workshop and breakout discussions, before wrapping up with an ice cream sundae social to put a cherry on top of Foster Care Awareness Month. 🎉
Through events like these, the coalition brings together foster youth advocates, ensuring that young people with lived experience have the tools and support to influence solutions and drive the changes foster youth deserve.
After all, awareness is only the beginning — meaningful change happens when awareness is paired with action. 🚀
