Specifically focusing on post-secondary access and success for foster youth, Gross points out the challenges foster youth face in the primary and secondary school context, such as being less likely to complete high school. These barriers to former foster youth continue once enrolled in post-secondary education, and can manifest as lack of institutional support, financial barriers, and limited to no familial support. The author discusses what policy makers and practitioners need to know to better support the educational attainment of former foster youth. | | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | | 关键词 | attainment gap; postsecondary access; incarceration; employment; National Postsecondary Student Aid Stud | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-99459-8 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-99459-8 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
