How do I request verification of my foster youth status?
Contact your county child welfare agency or probation office for a ward of the court letter.
Contact CDSS to request the verification letter by calling the Foster Care Ombudsman’s Office, toll free at 1-877-846-1602.
Join our Friday monthly meetings as we gather with current and former foster youth students in a safe environment to build community. Registration required.
Meetings will continue in the Fall semester.
