C4t² is a youth empowerment group that is looking to change the outlook on foster youth in a positive way. The group is made up of both in-care and emancipated foster youth who come together to make a "Change for Today & Tomorrow!"

An Invitation from the 2009 C4t2 President

Hello!  As a former foster youth myself, I’m honored and proud to represent Change for Today and Tomorrow (C4t²) as acting President. C4t² gives not only our current foster youth, but the emancipated youth information regarding their rights, and helps provide a level of empowerment to exercise these very rights. 

We need your help to recruit and invite current and former foster youth to attend C4t²’s once-a-month meetings.  All meeting are open to non-members.  We encourage you as community members, mentors, foster and adoptive parents, congress members, counselor’s, Judges, etc. to attend when available.

C4t² boasts of a promising future, helping those directly involved with the youth action council, and those who benefit by its missions and goals.  Change for Today and Tomorrow will give Texas’ youth a sense of belonging, hone in and develop their leadership skills and inevitably change our child protective service by those who know it the best, our current and former foster youth.

I look forward to seeing you at a meeting or event very soon!

Tiffani Harrison

Mission Statement: "Standing together as one voice to break the cycle and go beyond the limits.  To inform youth of their rights and to supply them with the empowerment in order to exercise those rights."
