Casey Family Services, the direct service agency of the Annie E. Casey Foundation until 2012, provided child welfare services for 30 years. Casey divisions operated in the six New England states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont) and in Baltimore, Maryland. Over the years, Casey has gained experience and knowledge in helping youth acquire the life skills they need to lead healthy and productive lives. The hallmark of Casey's work to help foster youth address problems and achieve goals has been individualized planning, based on a youth's strengths and needs, and teamwork with the youth, foster parents, birth parents, and other team members.
The youth transitioning from Casey foster care had better outcomes in several key areas, compared with youth transitioning from more traditional foster care. Of Casey alumni: 73% graduated from high school, compared with 60% of foster children in comparable studies.
