Safe Passages
Tampa, Florida


September 14th, 2006
Safe Passage is the latest publication of the Youth Transition Funders Group (YTFG), a consortium of major philanthropic foundations dedicated to strategic collaboration to address issues faced by vulnerable youth between the ages of 14 and 24. The publication provides examples of solutions that are successfully helping our youth negotiate the difficult transitions into and out of the educational system, the court system, and the foster care system. Other resources on the YTFG website include working papers on cross-cutting issues, toolkits for policymakers and advocates, and best practices for grantmakers. Consider checking in with your foundation about adding a link/YTFG icon to your foundation as a partner. Download Safe Passage.
