Housing support means more than providing a place to live, it provides the security these young people need to succeed, and helps them grow the skills necessary to become self-sufficient adults. Young adults, like Demetrius, show that #FYI is an investment in America's future. https://t.co/SG3sEaOQsu — PolitiTweet.org

This week wraps up the one year anniversary of the Foster Youth to Independence initiative. In just over one year we took an idea presented to us by former foster youth to help prevent homelessness for their community and we've implemented it, helping hundreds find housing. https://t.co/KdQunYXocL — PolitiTweet.org

My friend, @THEHermanCain, was a prolific businessman, a stalwart of conservative policies, and most importantly he was a loving husband and father. My prayers are with Gloria and his family as he rests in a better place. His humor and vigor for America will be missed. https://t.co/CMRZaSiR68 — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the Foster Youth to Independence housing recipients, @JoeGalvanHUD, @HUDMidwest, and @HUDgov’s @Portage_Housing for joining me in Cleveland to celebrate the one year anniversary of FYI by discussing how we can help even more foster youth achieve their dreams. https://t.co/r5PokY2aMf — PolitiTweet.org

America works best when it works for all. Foster Youth to Independence shows that we are on the right path, & the stories shared by recipients prove that no matter the obstacles, no matter how difficult the beginnings, anyone can rise to their potential in the Land of the Free. https://t.co/v8439qaDCW — PolitiTweet.org

21 Foster Youth to Independence housing vouchers have made their way to Ohio. We are not only changing the trajectory of the lives of these young people who received vouchers, but also of their children, and grandchildren.https://t.co/DrbAkaz7ZL — PolitiTweet.org

To date, 26 states have received funding for 680 individual vouchers, for a total of $5.6 million — all to help set young women and men aging out of foster care on the path to independence. https://t.co/DrbAkaz7ZL — PolitiTweet.org

This week marks one year since the launch of the FYI program and I am proud of the immense success we have achieved – in short order – providing for those who do not always have the means to provide for themselves. https://t.co/DrbAkaz7ZL https://t.co/XTpedFL0fs — PolitiTweet.org

Shortly after this meeting, @HUDgov launched the Foster Youth to Independence Initiative, a unique program offering housing vouchers to localities to award to foster youth so they can receive rental assistance when obtaining their first home in the private rental market. — PolitiTweet.org

.@HHSGov estimates that more than 20,000 young people age out of foster care each year and nearly 25% find themselves homeless within four years. In a country as great as ours, this is unacceptable, so we decided to fix it. #FYIAnniversary https://t.co/DrbAkaz7ZL — PolitiTweet.org

The thought of fellow Americans experiencing homelessness, extremely limited access to stable housing, employment uncertainty, limited education opportunities, and a daunting road to self-sufficiency should inspire us all to help our neighbors. https://t.co/DrbAkaz7ZL https://t.co/FTYDYnu6Yd — PolitiTweet.org

One goal of the Foster Youth to Independence Initiative is to remove the stigma surrounding former foster youth, who have had their lives upended by no fault of their own.
