Workers do not refer youth for PAL Services directly. All referrals must be made through regional PAL workers. PAL is also known as the Chafee Foster Care Independence Program.
Regional PAL workers may authorize these services to prepare a youth in substitute care to live independently when he or she becomes an adult or to assist the youth during transition to adulthood after leaving foster care. The goal is to empower each participant to meet essential personal needs to the best of his or her ability and improve life outcomes for youth.
