Includes information for each State's Child Welfare Agency Education Contacts, Independent Living (IL) and Education and Training Voucher (ETV) Coordinators. The IL program is a federally funded program designed to assist eligible youth in making successful transitions from foster care to independent living. IL Coordinators in the States are responsible for assisting youth in foster care with accessing services geared toward achieving self-sufficiency prior to exiting foster care. The ETV program was created to provide financial assistance for postsecondary training and education to youth who have aged out of foster care or who have left foster care after age 16 through kinship, guardianship, or adoption.
