Supervised Independent Living

In accordance with our child protection policies, all youth are informed of the right to their information. For youth who may decide to share their information, social media and release of information consent forms are signed. Youth may withdraw their consent at any time. This could affect the display of information on this page.

IAMFOSTERCHILD is the only international non-governmental organization that offers transitional living services abroad. Supervised independent living begins with a referral from a credible source. Our team will conduct an investigation and home assessment to determine a youth eligibility and level of care. This is to ensure that our resources matches the youth needs and that the referred youth is a candidate for our target population.


Once a youth is deemed eligible he or she will be assigned a case manager. The case manager is responsible for the youth orientation into the program, the development of the youth, and overall monitoring to ensure youth are meeting the SIL contract expectations.  In efforts to produce the best outcomes in our youth and to maximize the impact of our donors dollars, strong case management is exercised.



I AM FOSTERCHILD  understands that  the transition to independence is going to look different in different societies. Every society has their own beliefs, values and customs that shape their culture. It is the responsibility of I AM FOSTERCHILD to understand the culture and society we operate in. Despite many cultural difference there will always be core things that are transferable  no matter where our young adults reside and that is character! I AM FOSTERCHID focuses on building youth interpersonal skills, education and providing opportunity. We achieve this by providing  educational sponsorship, mentorship on issues related to transitioning into adulthood and our core values.
