Independent Living Program

Youth are empowered to make a difference in their own lives to develop their full potential.

Independent Living provides comprehensive transitional living servies to assist older youth in the state's foster care system in making a successful transition to self-sufficiency by providing housing, life skills, and long-term support.

• Life Skills Training
• Case Management
• Aftercare Services
• Scattered sites throughout Northern Kentucky

Why We Do It

Youth who are involved in the state foster care system struggle with basic common life skills that most take for granted. When they turn 18, they enter the community with little to no support. Youth Service staff work on a daily basis to ensure that youth become productive adult citizens that are educated, employed, and connected to their community.

Eligibility Criteria

Youth 18-21 years of age that are currently committed in the Kentucky state foster care system are eligible for the Independent Living Program. State workers need to refer youth to our program.
