“Canadian youth, on average, now leave home at age 27. Most youth have not completed post-secondary education by age 21. A young person who has been in care and has experienced setbacks or trauma may take much longer to start and finish schooling achievements. Young people in care should be provided with support at least as far-reaching as children who have not been found in need of protection, especially considering the increased needs of youth in care.”
