How do foster care support program staff describe best practices in emotional interventions that support the retention and success of foster care youth students who have matriculated into community colleges? And, how do foster care support program staff describe best practices in academic interventions that support retention and success of foster care youth students who have matriculated into community colleges? The sample for this study was foster youth support staff who worked in California community colleges.
