The realities of aging out of foster care.
While foster care strives to provide stable home environments for youth, they are instantly “aged” out of the foster care system when they turn 18. This means if they don’t have a family or support system in place — 1 in 5 instantly become homeless. More than 500 youth age out of the foster care system each year in North Carolina.
At The Open Door House, we want to restore hope for at-risk youth – no matter the situation they come from.
