Boysville offers graduating seniors the opportunity to further develop their adult skills while nurturing career and educational goals. 

Each year, over 600 youth in Bexar County will age out of the foster care system without a support system to help them transition into adulthood. This age group is at-risk for homelessness, drug abuse, and incarceration. Our Supervised Independent Living Program is one of only eight programs in Texas to support young adults as they attend college or vocational school, work in the community, or enlist in the military.

Boysville’s Supervised Independent Living Program follows high school graduates as they progress from living at Boysville or in foster care to living independently by providing emotional and financial support as needed. Young adults attending college or vocational school are eligible for scholarships offered through the Boysville Foundation to help offset additional expenses. Some of the services included are book assistance, housing, college living allowances, food allowance, and case management and therapeutic programs. 

A young adult must be working at least 80 hours a month, attending high school or taking 6 hours of college courses, or be involved in a volunteer/job skills program.

The application process:

• Young adults must complete the SIL application and obtain a referral from their DFPS caseworker.
• Once the referral and application are completed, they get sent to the state office for approval.
• Young adults will be interviewed and tour of the program.
• If accepted, the young adult must accept placement within 72 hours.

For more information, contact Stephanie Williams at 210-566-3209 or via email Stephanie Williams.

No cost once admitted to program and receive scholarship for school/living expenses.

Over the years we have provided food to the poor, mentorship to the young, life skill training for adults and thousands of dollars to assist with educational goals of hundreds of individuals to help them accomplish their goals to make a contribution to make a positive difference for others in their lifetime.

Today we continue to do so with the support of hundreds of dedicated financial supporters and volunteers. The Community for Life Foundation represents not only the heart of its Founders and Executive Board Members but a community of people who have come together to give a "hand up" to those who desire to live not for themselves but to serve others to make a transformational difference one person at a time locally to reach the world globally.
