Empowering Foster Youth to Build a Bright Future

Empower
Growth

At AcademySTAY, we provide aged-out foster youth with stable housing, life skills training, mentorship, and mental health support — giving them the foundation they need to succeed in education, careers, and life.

Our programs are designed to address the critical needs of

aged-out foster youth, helping them transition into independent adulthood. Each program is tailored to provide stability,

skill-building, and a sense of belonging.

HOUSING

A safe, fully furnished apartment is the foundation for success. AcademySTAY offers housing for youth aged 18–24, giving them a stable environment to focus on education and personal growth.

​

​EDUCATION AND TRAINING

Our life skills classes prepare youth for the challenges of adulthood. From financial literacy and job readiness to academic support, we equip them with tools for independence.

​

MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT

We provide trauma-informed care, connecting students with mental health professionals and resources to ensure they feel supported and secure as they work toward their goals.

​

COMMUNITY BUILDING

Through peer connections, mentorship, and community events, we foster a sense of belonging and support that helps youth build lasting relationships and networks.
