<span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:140%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">On May 11, 2018, the Circuit Court for Prince George’s County Model Court Team sponsored the Foster Youth Symposium: Getting to Y.E.S. (Youth Experiencing Success) for
older youth transitioning out of the foster care system. The symposium involved a combination of PowerPoint presentations, panel discussions and breakout sessions. Presenters provided information on the demographics of the foster care population on a local,
state and national level and how our transitioning foster youth are faring compared to other foster youth in the state and on a national level. The panels and breakout sessions focused on housing, education and employment options for our youth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:140%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Some highlights of the symposium included hearing from several of our current foster youth as well as young adults who have aged out of the system. State legislators,
Senator Joanne C. Benson, Delegate Elizabeth G. (Susie) Proctor and Delegate C.T. Wilson provided some legislative highlights from the past session and gave the charge to the child welfare stakeholders to continue the important work involving our foster youth.
The legislators spoke to our foster youth and reminded them of their importance in this world and that they can do anything they set their minds to. When asked what they liked most about the symposium on the exit survey, one participant wrote “Literally everything!
It was very thought-provoking and I received information about lots of resources."<o:p></o:p></span></p>

"We still have some work to do. Our work is not over until <b>every</b> foster youth has a permanent home, a good education, employed or in school. The symposium provided that additional information and inspiration. I know I'm more determined than ever to
help pull resources together to get to Y.E.S. for our foster youth. Our committee will be calling on our panelists and others to help us in this cause." <o:p></o:p></span></p>
