My First Home connected 129 participants to community volunteers who helped them transform their first apartments into comfortable homes with furnishings donated by the San Diego community. Without this support, youth are much more likely to begin a treacherous downward spiral that leads to poverty, homelessness and despair. Immediate financial assistance with rent money, bus passes, gas cards, interview clothing, vehicle repair, and food helps immunize youth against debilitating stress, unhealthy physical habits and exploitation. This support is accompanied by connections to a caring community and other services that build self-confidence and life skills. 303577 102909 Career Horizons and Bridges to Success:Career Horizons provides young women with the tools and support to bring their employment options into focus, including networks and career links essential to career success. Each participant seeking a job completes 3 job interviews, and all the young women learn about their strengths, craft a confident elevator pitch, and cultivate impactful relationships with up to four women coaches. In Bridges To Success, young men and their male coaches, called Champions, come together to share stories, learn from their common mistakes, gain skills to excel in life, and form trusting relationships as a foundation for a proud future. 249855 49706 COMMUNITY:JUST IN TIME FOR FOSTER YOUTH HOSTS COMMUNITY AND OTHER EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR FOR FORMER FOSTER YOUTH.

This is in contrast to studies showing that transition age foster youth typically have low financial literacy and very little in savings. An additional 68 youth benefited from Pathways to Financial Power services focused on work readiness; subsequent surveys revealed that 93% of participants said they feel confident in their interview skills and 93% agreed they feel confident they can make their professional goals a reality. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: College Bound: The Cities, Counties and Schools Partnership found that 70% of foster youth reported a desire to go to college, while only 10% attend and 1-3% graduate. Youth have a history of trauma, lack financial support and stability, and are not prepared for college due to educational inconsistency as they bounce from placement to placement. For the foster youth that do enter college, they often feel theyre set up for failure as they struggle to meet basic needs for survival while trying to be a student. But Just in Time is changing that. By supporting youth through a holistic approach, were able to achieve outcomes very different from the sobering statistics on former foster youth in our state and nation. According to surveys updated in June 2018, 627 youth have participated in College Bound and nearly 91% have graduated or are still enrolled in school.
