Summary

The Fresh Starts for Foster Youth Act tells states to consider legal issues—like housing, education, employment and family matters—when planning services for youth in foster care. It also lets states use money from the John H. Chafee Foster Care Transition program to pay for legal counseling and related support. The goal is to give foster youth better access to the legal help they need to become independent adults.
