The executive order, which the president will sign Thursday, will be focused on supporting foster youth transitioning out of the system to adulthood by expanding and enhancing access to education, workforce and career development, digital resources, and other supports. This will be accomplished by leveraging federal and private sector commitments, according to an administration official.

The order will also launch the first lady's "Fostering the Future" initiative and develop new resources for supporting kids in the foster care system.

Fostering the Future is part of First Lady Melania Trump's "Be Best" initiative.

Fostering the Future "secures educational opportunities and scholarships for children in the foster care community," according to the Be Best website.

Only 50% of foster children finish high school, and only 3% of former foster children obtain a college degree, according to the National Foster Youth Institute.

"Scholarship recipients will learn in a supportive environment, gaining knowledge critical to realizing job security within the technology sector," the website says. "By providing access to a computer science education, these individuals will be prepared to enter the workforce and ultimately reach financial independence."

Trump signed a proclamation May 7, 2025 designating May 2025 as "National Foster Care Month." Foster youths were invited to trick-or-treat at the White House on Halloween.

The first lady also secured a $25 million investment in the FY 2026 federal budget to support youth transitioning out of foster care, specifically housing support through the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Foster Youth to Independence program.
