Blog 4- 4/12/2013

I met with Karla on this day. Being a foster youth, I was curious about what services are offered to youth and how all that worked. She told me about special amenities like clothing allowances, transportation, graduation assistance, school costs, etc that most youth get. She explained to me how the process went with giving youth these things and how often you can get these amenities. For example, depending on your placement clothing allowances are giving every 6 months or once a year. Bus passes or clipper cards are giving every month. She also told me about basic services youth get, like Medical health insurance, and she explained that each case is different so different services are available depending on the case. I learn a lot about things I'm allowed to receive.
