2. FosterVision: Purpose
To facilitate tracking foster youth educational status, placement changes, and improvement of services, through a collection of data from districts and public agencies
Sustainable and Free to Santa Clara County School Districts

3. Solving the Problem
Districts and agencies have historically been challenged with keeping track of foster youth
Challenges with district moves, academic records, changes in status, etc.
Lack of communication channels between partners
Opportunity: LCFF
Funding now tied to identified foster youth
FosterVision System

4. Solutions, Project Design
Needed: A clearinghouse to gather district and agency data in one place, then deliver it in a secure, web-based environment
Needed: A means to ensure data is kept up-to-date (source data)
Nothing new here in terms of data sharing, just a MUCH more efficient delivery system. (As close to REAL TIME as possible!!)
