Empowering Foster Youth Through Creativity

In addition to the fashion showcase, Foster & Fashion hopes to encourage and empower foster youth through its programs. “Right now, we are gathering instructors and people who are in various fields to teach classes. We want to do one class per quarter,” said Williams. “We have a partnership with Paul Mitchell School. They’re going to be teaching our kids cosmetology. We have a youth who does painting and wants to come and teach painting classes. So we’ll do that for one quarter. So each quarter, we’re doing a class in various subjects involving art, fashion, [and/ or] community.”
