DescriptionNextStep: Transitioning Youth and Mentoring: There are more than 1,500 foster youth who "age out" of the foster care system in Los Angeles every year without a permanent family, adequate support or preparation. The NextSTEP Program is a safety net for youth ages 14-22, empowering them with skill building workshops, access to resources, advocacy and mentoring to overcome barriers preventing them from obtaining employment, education, housing and healthcare. For youth with severe disabilities, The Alliance secures SSI benefits to pay for housing and medical care to help avoid homelessness. Together with pro bono attorneys and community volunteers, The Alliance is helping to change the outcomes for these youth.Description

DescriptionEducation: More than half of all foster children have learning and behavioral disabilities or developmental delays. The Alliance levels the playing field for these children by advocating for them to receive the benefit of an Individual Education Program tailored to meet their special needs. Evidence shows that reaching children at a young age will improve healthy development and reduce or avoid the need for special education and mental health services later. In response, the Alliance created its Early Intervention Center which increases access to treatments and services for hundreds of children ages 0-3 every year.Description

DescriptionAdoption & Guardianship: Adoption gives foster children a chance to be part of a permanent family. With the help of pro bono attorneys, The Alliance overcomes barriers and delays for children waiting for their adoption to finalize. Working with adoptive families to identify the health, educational and funding needs of the child, The Alliance completes one third of all adoptions of children in foster care. The Adoption Day program has become a national model. Legal Guardianship is filed in probate court for children being raised by kin and family friends outside the foster care system. The Alliance helps hundreds of caregivers become legal guardians and gain access to resources each year.Description

DescriptionPublic Benefits and Children's Court Advocacy: Children who have been abused or neglected by their parents have a tremendous need for a stable home. Caregivers who step up to provide for these children are often low-income and can become overwhelmed, putting that essential stability at risk. The Alliance obtains appropriate funding and services for these children so that caregivers can access critical supports like physical therapy, counseling, specialized medical equipment and respite care. Securing these resources can often mean the difference between permanent, safe homes and struggling, unstable ones.Health Care: A child's illness can be emotionally and financially devastating for any family, and for families already living in poverty the challenges are even greater. The Alliance helps children facing Medi-Cal eligibility problems, treatment denials and inadequate access to physicians and mental health services. The Alliance also conducts trainings and support for medical and social service providers. System-Wide Reform and Advocacy: The Alliance for Children's Rights provides children with a voice for system-side change. Through education, advocacy, litigation, and support of sound policy, The Alliance promotes protocols and practices that are in the best interest of children and challenges those that are not. Through working with such a large number of individual clients, The Alliance is able to recognize trends and identify issues on a larger scale, and respond to systemic needs, as well as individual ones.Description
