Foster care and aging out

In my time at The Vancouver Sun and Province, I wrote many stories about foster care and what happens to foster children when they "age out" of government care.
Here is a selection of links:

'Shocking' numbers of aboriginal children in care an 'embarrassment,' children's advocate says


Number of B.C. kids-in-care deaths, critical injuries jump dramatically


B.C. youth in foster care died alone, as multiple warning signs ignored



Girl who recently aged out of government care dies in Surrey tent



Teenager's death in Surrey 'a preventable tragedy,' NDP says
