Which group of individuals is covered by the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008?

Youth age 6 up to age 9
Youth age 10 up to age 13
Youth age 12 up to age 15
Youth age 18 up to age 21

The correct answer is: Youth age 18 up to age 21

The Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008 covers youth aged 18 up to age 21. This legislation aimed to provide support and assistance to older youth in foster care, including extending services and resources to help these individuals successfully transition into adulthood. It recognizes that this older age group often faces unique challenges when aging out of the foster care system and aims to provide additional support to help them overcome these obstacles and achieve positive outcomes. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not fall within the age range covered by the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008.
