Foster Care and Independent Living Programs
Preparing Youth for Independence Isn't Easy
You know the statistics.
Thousands of youth will age out of foster care each year, and every young person deserves the opportunity to succeed as an independent adult. The challenge is that you don't always know how much time you'll have to make a lasting difference.
Life Skills Reimagined® is an interactive online life skills curriculum that helps foster youth build the practical skills—and confidence—they need for a successful transition to adulthood. Through engaging videos, real-world application, and evidence-based learning, youth develop communication, financial literacy, employment, resiliency, and independent living skills that support long-term self-sufficiency.
Designed specifically for foster care, Chafee Independent Living, transition-age youth, family preservation, and youth homelessness programs, the curriculum provides consistent, trauma-informed instruction that reduces staff burden while increasing learner engagement.
Life Skills Reimagined aligns with the Chafee Independent Living Program and all six NYTD outcome domains, making it an ideal solution for organizations seeking a flexible, scalable, and PROVEN life skills curriculum.
