Teens who have “phased out” of foster care are at high risk for destructive and criminal behaviors unless others help. They need a family willing to teach them independent living skills; to be a “sounding board” and listen to their problems; to offer guidance and a new way of coping; to be a support, a soft place to fall, a non-judgmental safe environment filled with compassion which was a rarity in their childhood; to help them find a job, further education and eventually a new place to live.
