Academic Support for Children in Foster Care

Through our Tutoring Program we aim to improve graduation rates among foster youth and help better prepare them for post-secondary education, so they have the skills required to support themselves as productive young adults.

We have contracted an exceptional group of highly qualified tutors, with the experience and training to work one-on-one with foster youth that need extra support to be successful in school. We work hard to ensure that our tutors remain paired with the children throughout the school year, so if they are moved from one foster home to another or are returned to their biological families, our tutors remain a constant source of academic support.

Since we started, TFFC has provided tens of thousands of hours of tutoring to over 1000 Foster Youth with amazing success. Our objective is to meet the needs of as many school-aged foster youth as possible, enabling them to reach their academic goals. Contact us to learn more.

Each year TFFC takes teens in our tutoring program to visit different college campuses across the US. Our students have visited campuses in Virginia, DC, Georgia, South Carolina and Pennsylvania, where they have gotten a glimpse of what college life is like, and an immersive experience in the local communities!
