Teen Trainers are a group of current and former foster care youth who speak to groups about their experience in foster care. Their goal is to reach out, volunteer and give back to the community. They share their stories of struggle and triumphs with the hope to inspire other foster youth, educate, and be the best they can. Their purpose is to clear the disbeliefs and increase the success of foster youth.

Teen Trainers have presented to community leaders, students, foster parents, schools, and non-profit organizations to advocate for change at venues such as:

- Foster Youth Town Hall
