Young people leaving institutional or alternative care face many challenges in the process of adapting themselves to independant living. An important majority of them do not enter higher education, while an important number of the young people leaving foster or residential care are neither in employment, nor in education or training (NEETs), which strongly compromises their chances to successfully transition into adulthood. In the context of the above described challenges, the current proposal aims to contribute to the already ongoing effort to find solutions through: 1. Providing guidance and support to young people by creating a “one-stop-shop” where they will be able to access information, guidance, support and services provided by relevant organizations and institutions. 2. Support young people through the process of transition to independence by creating a network of volunteer mentors to help them build their personal plan and assist them in their communication with institutions and organizations. 3. Establishing long term cooperation among the partners with the objective to assist the insertion of care leavers in European Youth Mobility, Volunteering, and Apprenticeship programmes. The opportunities the EU provides for Youth and Education represent an enormous opportunity for vulnerable young people for inclusion, participation, gaining professional experience and important professional and individual competences.The project will directly involve about 60 young people aged 18-26 through the activities as well as around 500 indirect participants. The main activities of the project are: 1. The Life Skills for Care Leavers support e- platform and mobile app where care leavers will be able to access information and guidance on the services at their disposal, provided by relevant institutions and organizations, as well as support and coaching online through the app, by phone or person to person. 2. The Life Skills for Care Leavers training course for Mentors in order to ensure that the youngsters will benefit from high quality mentorship and coaching competences. 3. The Life Skills for Care Leavers training course for Young People in order to complete and facilitate the work of the mentors and provide young people with a set of important skills for their transition to adulthood. 4. A Tool Kit for organizations and staff in European Cooperation and mobility for disadvantaged young people containing guidance in the introduction of quality, safety, and responsibility standards for sending and receiving young people in this situation. 5. A six months long pilot Mentoring programme will be organized in each country as part of the project6. Two international training events, one for mentors and one for care leavers, will be also implemented.The project will assist young people leaving care to receive continuous support during their transition to adulthood; acquire specific social, financial and organizational skills and competences which will allow them to successfully transition to adulthood and reduce significantly their risk of social isolation; strengthen their sense of initiative, and motivation to continue with education and/or employment and improve their educational and vocational outcomes.
