With generous support from the LA County Office of Education, UFC has hired a new COVID-19 Support College Counselor to provide intensive support to youth struggling with learning loss, academic performance, and social and emotional wellness. As reported last spring, foster youth in LAUSD had one of the lowest participation rates in remote learning among all student populations. Our youth are also struggling with social isolation and economic instability. Our college readiness and academic case management services to foster youth are needed now more than ever and we’re so grateful for the support to provide supplemental services to those most in need.
