The Rightway Foundation

Foster youth and probation youth experience disproportionate rates of homelessness, incarceration, food insecurity, and trauma. The RightWay Foundation provides the support and tools youth need to develop emotional and financial stability and create a sustainable adulthood for themselves. Founded in 2011 by Franco Vega, an orphan and former probation youth, The RightWay Foundation ensures basic needs are met and surpassed for our most vulnerable youth, with mental health, housing, job readiness/placement, financial capability, life skills, and community. We envision a future where system-impacted youth have access to the necessary resources to thrive and build a better tomorrow, grounded in mental health and solidified through employment and permanent housing.
