Gather for Good: Get Together With Your Network to Support Youth from Care!

Host a meaningful gathering with your network — whether it’s a dinner party, coffee meetup, backyard brunch, or workplace lunch — and turn connection into impact for youth transitioning out of foster care. Gather for Good is a simple and personal way to bring people together, start important conversations, and raise awareness and support for young people building independent futures. Every gathering, big or small, helps create opportunities for youth to access stable housing, education, mentorship, mental health support, and a strong community of care. By opening your space and sharing StepStones’ mission with the people around you, you are helping young people feel seen, supported, and empowered as they navigate adulthood.
