Educational Outcomes K-12

A Strategic Guide to Success in School

A Road Map for Learning is a guide for everyone working towards successful educational outcomes for youth in foster care or out-of-home care.

The book provides a modular framework for achieving collaboration across the federal, state, and local legal, educational, and child welfare systems. Emphasizing the needs of K–12 students, it contains resources for parents, caregivers, teachers, and child welfare professionals.

A Road Map for Learning shows how to integrate the predictors of academic success into an educational plan and encourages letting youth in out-of-home care be the primary voice in their own decision-making.

The guide was published in 2004 by Casey Family Programs.
