Program overview

Putting Youth at the Center of Their Permanency Plans

Youth-Centered Permanency Roundtables (YCPRT) a program of Kinnect, that ensures that youth have a voice in shaping their own permanency plans. YCPRT engages youth in open conversations about their goals, allowing them to invite trusted adults and professionals to create a support network that lasts beyond foster care.

How YCPRT Makes an Impact

Youth-Driven Decision-Making
YCPRT gives young people the power to define their permanency goals and build a circle of support.

Inclusion of Trusted Adults
We encourage youth to invite adults they trust to join the conversation and be part of their support system.

System-Wide Collaboration
YCPRT brings together youth, caregivers, and professionals to build a shared vision for lasting permanency.

“Being part of my own permanency roundtable helped me feel heard. I knew I had a say in my future.”
