Restore $3.5M to Graduation Success for Students Foster Care

Tue, 13 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Great news: Governor Ferguson included $3.5 million for Treehouse's Graduation Success program in his supplemental budget proposal! This critical funding will help youth in foster care stay on track toward graduation.

But we're not done yet. The House and Senate must both include this funding in their final budgets. We need your voice to make sure this happens.

Why This Matters: Youth in foster care face significant barriers to graduation. Treehouse's Graduation Success Program provides the targeted support these students need to succeed academically and graduate on time. Without this funding, hundreds more vulnerable youth could lose access to essential services.
