Foster-care training · built by a former foster youth

A framework a young person can recognize as their own —not a state-mandated checklist.

Boughstead is a small digital studio turning one foster-care alum's lived-experience framework into a curriculum agencies can license, families can use at 11pm, and young people can recognize as something that was written with them in mind.

Why this exists

The curriculum was a personal project first. It still is.

Beyond Placement · the framework

Seven modules. Sequenced in the order a real placement asks for them.

Two doors into the same library

Start with the kit, commit to the course, or license the curriculum.
The $29 Life-book kit is what a family opens on day one of a placement. The $199 caregiver course walks the same seven modules at your own pace. Agencies, managed- care plans, and school districts license the full facilitator-ready curriculum under their own seal.
