Summary
This bill amends the Social Security Act to strengthen the John H. Chafee Foster Care Program by requiring states to increase awareness among eligible youth of available services and to encourage their participation. The bill mandates that youth in foster care receive important documents (birth certificates, social security cards, health records, driver's licenses) and information about transition services, with states required to certify they have made reasonable efforts to reach and engage eligible youth, including vulnerable populations. It also establishes performance benchmarks and data collection requirements to track youth notification and service outcomes.
