🌱 Resilience isn't something you're born with — it's something that grows when you're surrounded by people who believe in you.

Research shows that the more preparation and connection a young person receives as they transition out of foster care, the stronger their long-term well-being. (PMC / NIH, 2022)

Foster and at-risk youth are not defined by the system they grew up in. They are defined by who they become — and the community that walks alongside them.

At Compassion Planet, we see their strength every single day. 💛

"Every child deserves a champion — an adult who will never give up on them." — Rita Pierson, educator and TED Talk speaker

📚 Did you know?

Only 8–12% of former foster youth earn a college degree by their mid-to-late 20s — compared to 49% of the general population.

And just 1 in 2 foster youth have gainful employment by age 24.

This isn't a failure of the young people — it's a gap in the support systems around them. When youth transition out of care without mentors, housing stability, or financial guidance, the odds are stacked against them before they even begin.

Compassion Planet works to close that gap — connecting at-risk and formerly foster youth in California with the tools, mentorship, and community they need to thrive. 💛

What would change for these young people if they had you in their corner?

💭 "Every kid is ONE caring adult away from being a success story." — Josh Shipp, author, national speaker, and former foster youth

Up to 80% of children in foster care face significant mental health challenges — nearly 5x the rate of the general population.

These aren't just statistics. They're kids who have experienced loss, instability, and trauma — often before they were old enough to understand why.

The research is clear: when young people receive consistent support and preparation for independence, their outcomes dramatically improve.

At Compassion Planet, we believe every young person deserves that one caring adult — and then some. 💛

📣 Every year, about 4,000 youth age out of foster care in California alone.

No graduation party. No parent waiting at home. Just a birthday — and a system that closes the door.
65% leave care at 18 with no place to call home. Without connection and community, the odds stack up fast.
That's why Compassion Planet exists — to stand in the gap for transition-age foster youth, offering mentorship, resources, and a community that doesn't walk away when they turn 18.

💛 Because aging out shouldn't mean going it alone.

🧠 Why This Works

Real change doesn’t come from one solution.

It comes from the combination of:
• Trauma-informed mentoring
• Life skills education
• Paid, real-world job training

That’s what leads to independence—not just temporary help.

Be part of what works.
