18% of children who exit Virginia foster care each year age out at 18. This means Virignia ranks as one of the worst states in the USA for the percent of children who age out of foster care without a permanent home. (Source: VDSS.)
Virginia is often regarded as one of the worst states for foster care with a staggering number of over 4,800 children currently trapped within the system. This issue is further exacerbated by the fact that 48% of these children in foster care are 13 years and older, highlighting the urgent need for improved support systems to ensure a brighter future for these vulnerable youth.
