Maryland CASA May Webinar – Educational Stability for Foster Youth and Legislative Updates
Date – Wednesday, May 16, 2018
Time –12:00 p.m. – 1:30 p.m.
Description – School can be a source of stability, support, and a long-term path to independence for youth in foster care. Too often, however, such youth are unaware of their rights in the context of education, and end up suffering academically as a result. This webinar will provide a primer on the laws governing the education of foster youth, as well as practical guidance on how advocates can ensure that these youth receive the educational protections and benefits to which they are entitled. We will also discuss any changes in legislation that affect children in CINA cases.
