All teens are different, and sometimes it feels like no one else understands what it’s like to be a teen in foster care.

Y-net is here for you.

OHIO Youth Advisory Board Podcast of the month Bullying support

What does "normalcy" mean to you?

"Having some support. Even when we are 'of age.' and having others look out for you."

Ashley

"Being able to go on sleepovers, driving, going on vacation with foster parents instead of going to respite, being allowed to make mistakes without fearing that the foster parents will ask for removal."

Cathy

"Stability in my physical and emotional state. Having a support system that I can rely on."

Dameon

"Being understood. Having a community that's supportive - that it's okay that I'm quiet; nothing's wrong with me. To be treated differently and not by my circumstance."

Jaye
