About this resource
Going Places is a SPARC (State Policy and Advocacy Reform Center) effort to reduce barriers for youth in foster care to obtain driver's licenses and state IDs, nationwide.
Recognizing the high level of importance that a driver’s license can have in the life of an adolescent or young adult in foster care, SPARC and its state partners have launched a targeted policy campaign to encourage policymakers to take action to remove barriers and promote better access to driver’s education and driver’s licenses for young people in foster care. By doing so, they can make a measurable difference in the lives of countless young people who want to have the same opportunities as their peers to work, attend school and participate in community activities.
