Together, we can make a lasting difference in their educational journey.
Fostering Lions at Penn State Greater Allegheny provides resources and support to help students with foster care experience reach their academic goals and graduate successfully. Our program is designed to:
Provide clear academic pathways and guided support leading to graduation, employment, and personal well-being.
Build a strong support network that connects students with campus and community resources.
Assist with accessing and maximizing financial aid opportunities.
Simplify processes and help students navigate policies related to academics, financial aid, and dependency reviews.
At Greater Allegheny campus, we are committed to creating supportive conditions for every student’s success. We know that building relationships with students before they arrive on campus is key to ensuring a smooth transition from high school to college.
As you meet with students considering Greater Allegheny campus, we encourage you to connect them with us. If a student with foster care experience is interested in visiting campus or speaking with a current student, please let us know—we are happy to arrange it.
We also welcome the chance to meet with you and your team to discuss the comprehensive support available here. Please reach out to us anytime for more information or to schedule a conversation.
Thank you for partnering with us to support students with foster care experience.
