PLUGGED IN ON THE WEB

www.fyi3.com: Young people making the sometimes difficult
transition out of foster care have a new place to turn to
for help in smoothing the bumps out of the process. fyi3.com's
focus is on the 100,000 young people in America who are moving
from dependency on the child welfare system to adulthood.
Free, anonymous and available 24 hours a day, fyi3.com seeks
to empower them to become: involved - through message boards,
contests and feedback forums; informed - with news, legislation,
a glossary, FAQs and a list of rights and responsibilities;
independent - with listings of opportunities, resources and
scholarships.
