Foster Student
Fostering Success Initiative (FSI)
The Center for Student Advocacy and Community (CSAC) stands on its foundation of diversity and acceptance for all seekers of educational excellence. We aim to bring educational equality and self-determining assistive resources to our varying student members.
As a former Foster Care youth in transition, the CSAC’s primary goal is to help you generate a circle of support through advisory and peer mentoring, along with sharing our long-held traditions of academic, personal, and professional training and development of on and off-campus life skills. Welcome to the University of Houston – Downtown, and everything is possible at UHD.
Transitional Living Resources
Houston’s transition center serves as a central location for services for foster youth transitioning to adulthood, including employment, education, housing, mental health, and life skills programs. It empowers current and former foster youth to be successful, productive adults.
