The sessions focused on building systems capacity to strengthen youth workforce development, drawing from the success of our award-winning Works Wonders® program. This collaborative opportunity was full of learning, connection, and growth—and we’re excited to continue with virtual trainings in the coming weeks. We’re also exploring the possibility of welcoming one or more new Works Wonders® replication partners to expand opportunities for youth nationally!

At Foster Forward, we’re addressing youth homelessness through programs like Your Way Home, which provides young people with stable housing and the resources they need to thrive. We're also working on initiatives like the Center City Apartments, creating 30 affordable units for youth aging out of care. If you’d like to learn more about our housing journey, check out our 2023 Annual Report or read the recent Providence Journal article highlighting this critical work. Thanks to your support, we’re building a future where every young person has a safe place to call home. https://www.fosterforward.net/blog/october-at-foster-forward-awards-housing-amp-giving-opportunities monthly 0.5 2025-01-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9766b53db0294c3d763ad7/e3e31249-8262-4534-bccb-23e30c668722/64689533-eb21-35f4-b9ff-6861a50a244d.jpg Foster Forward Blog - October at Foster Forward: Awards & Housing - This month, Foster Forward was honored to receive the Community Organization Spotlight Award at Haus of Codec’s annual anniversary celebration!
