Because foster families and group homes often face a lack of time, resources, or extra funds, these milestones can unfortunately go unacknowledged.

The Wyoming Foster Care Youth & Alumni Policy Council (WPC) is a statewide, youth-led policy council modeled after the National Foster Care Youth & Alumni Policy Council, established in partnership with FosterClub and Foster Care Alumni of America. and Casey Family Programs 

The WPC brings together current and former foster youth, foster care alumni, and individuals with juvenile justice experience, ages 18 and older, to use their lived experiences to help improve Wyoming’s child welfare system.

Similar to the National Council, the WPC provides recommendations, feedback, and solutions directly to the Wyoming Department of Family Services (DFS) and other state stakeholders to help strengthen policies, programs, and services.

The WPC is a non-lobbying policy council. Its purpose is to elevate lived experience, identify gaps in the system, and recommend meaningful improvements.

The WPC is designed to complement, not replace, the Wyoming Youth Advisory Council (WYAC), which serves youth ages 14–26 through Chafee-funded programming. The two councils serve different but equally important purposes in strengthening the voices of Wyoming’s foster youth and alumni.
