Improving Outreach for Foster Youth

This project recommends the creation of a self-service online portal by the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS) to improve outcomes for foster youth. The portal would allow aging-out foster youth to provide, edit, and update their contact information. This tool will enhance the ability of service-providing agencies to reach those youth reliably and so to connect the youth to government and community resources.

This project was completed as part of the 2023 Tech Executive Leadership Initiative (TELI) hosted in conjunction with the Tech Talent Project. You can learn more about TELI here.
