Transitional Youth Success (TYS) will help you design a plan and turn that plan into the reality you want it to be. Your plan may change as you go through the program. Your personal Transition Coach will help guide you through to a successful conclusion. TYS is dedicated and invested in you and the success of your personal transition plan. Education counselors are here to assist you with filling out your FAFSA, or applying for CHAFFEE grants. TYS will host monthly, and individual trainings specifically designed to assist you in transitioning from foster care successfully. We will offer education information, tours of colleges, vocation assistance, introduction to services, such as; orientations with Work Force Connection, Focus Forward, Fresno County Independent Living Program, budget plan training, housing plans, outside cooking classes, healthy relationships, legal issues, and substance abuse referral services. TYS will assist you in obtaining your personal documents including: birth certificates, social security cards, medical records, driver’s license and more. After developing your transition plan we will support areas that are working and assist with areas that need improvement.

TYS will provide a Transition Coach that will meet with you individually, although it is your responsibility to reach out to your coach when needed. Your coach is here to assist you in obtaining attaining your goals. TYS is committed to turning your goals into successes. We are here to support you as you become self-sufficient, reach your potential, and use your transition plan as a path towards independence!s
