Just in Time for Foster Youth

Just in Time for Foster Youth JIT engages a caring community to help transition age foster youth achieve self-sufficiency and well-being.

We envision a future in which every youth leaving the foster care system has a community of caring adults waiting for them after 18. Just in Time for Foster Youth (JIT) empowers transition age foster youth to become confident, capable and connected. We believe consistent, long-term help from the heart is the foundation for the success of our youth so that they can thrive and enjoy productive, sati

sfying lives. JIT is more than an agency, we're an extended family. Learn more about the impact we have and how to get involved at www.JITfosteryouth.org.

College Bound Day 1 was a blast! It was so exciting to see so many new faces preparing for and continuing their higher education journeys.

Photos tell a story, and for many of our young adults, this was their first time meeting one another. Watching them lean in, make new connections, step outside their comfort zones, and build community was incredible to witness.

From a mini campus tour and creative activities to lunch, inspiration, and meaningful conversations, Day 1 was filled with moments that matter.

We can't wait to see everyone back for College Bound Day 2! 💙📚

We always find a reason to put ourselves last.

“When work slows down.”
“When life calms down.”
“When I’m less tired.”
“When things get easier.”

But mental health doesn’t wait for the “perfect” time and neither should you. 💜

You can’t pour from an empty cup. Sometimes healing starts with simply taking the first step.

At Just in Time for Foster Youth, we offer FREE therapy to young adults impacted by foster. We believe support should be accessible, flexible, and judgment-free. Whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions, we want you to receive care in the way that feels safest and easiest for you.

No long waitlists.
No pressure.
Just support.
