In Congress, Gwen Moore will work to ensure that youth leaving foster care have a safe, secure place to call home by expanding housing support and state flexibility for foster youth.

I’m working to ensure that youth leaving the foster care system have a safe, secure place to call home, so they can lead successful lives as adults. My legislation would give states the much-needed flexibility to help foster youth pay for security deposits and utility connection fees, among other critical supports.

Moore commits to advancing foster youth housing support, including helping states cover housing-related costs for youth exiting foster care.

Her bipartisan bills would make housing more accessible for foster youth and strengthen the Chafee program, the major federal program providing services to young people who are currently in or previously experienced foster care, providing support to them as they transition to adulthood.

Moore restates her commitment to improve housing access and support services for foster youth through the legislation she is advancing.
