The Iowa Aftercare Services Network is
a
statewide initiative funded
Department of Human Services in response to the
Chafee
Foster Care Independence Act of 1999
to address the needs of young adults who
have aged-out of foster care. Assistance is available for eligible
young adults at least 18 years old but not yet 21 who are residents of Iowa.
Twelve human service agencies collaborate to form the Network so local agencies can deliver services to young adults in each of Iowa's 99 counties.
