Welcome to YDC's website. It was developed with the help of a UVM student as a central resource for you as you transition out of foster care. It will also be of interest to your caseworker and any service providers who work with you.
It includes information on the common steps you will take to achieve certain life goals, such as attending college, learning how to drive, getting your first apartment, and finding a job.
The goal is to provide information you'll need to make important decisions regarding your future.
It also includes information about the Youth Development Committee—how you can get involved with the Committee and how the Committee can help you if you are in need.
We hope you find this site useful on your journey to successful adulthood.
The 2012 conference will take place on Wednesday, April 4th at Johnson State College. There will be a keynote speaker, workshops, youth speak out forums, fun activities, and more. Stay tuned for more info!
