Since 1969, Utah Youth Village have been working to help provide young Utahns with the adult relationships and learning opportunities they need to thrive. Today, we serve thousands of individuals a year, helping them find foster care with carefully selected families, boarding schools, and other providers. Utah Youth Village works with foster parents who are married, single, gay, heterosexual, divorced, and widowed. Some foster parents live in apartments while others own houses. No matter who you are, you can be a foster parent if you can provide love, support, and stability to a child. The state provides financial reimbursement to families in our program.
