Context: Congregate care is a placement setting that consists of 24-hour supervision for children in highly structured settings such as group homes, childcare institutions, residential treatment facilities, or maternity homes.  Such settings must be a licensed or approved home or facility that can take in 7-12 children, as seen in group homes, or 12 or more children, as seen in institutions.  Fourteen is the average age of children who enter into congregate care.  In the United States out of the 400,000 children in the foster care system around 55,000 live in congregate care settings.  In the United States in 2013 there was 55,916 children in congregate care.  In the last ten years, there has been a 37% decrease in the number of children in congregate care, which is greater than the overall 21% drop in number of children in the foster care system.

Utah Foster Care (UFC), formerly "Utah Foster Care Foundation" is a non-profit organization that provides foster families for the State of Utah.  Since their founding, UFC has played a role in caring for young children who have been subjected to abuse, neglect, and other hardships by their caretakers.  As of 2013, at any given time in Utah, there are about 2,700 children experiencing crisis in the home who are in need of foster care.  Nearly half of all cases involve substance abuse by biological parents.  Given the difficult circumstances and special needs of these children, UFC's goal is to find and prepare foster parents to meet those needs.  They accomplish this goal by finding, educating, and nurturing families willing to open their homes to children in foster care. Raise A Child Inc.

Ewald is the founder and chairwoman of Foster Care Support Foundation, Inc.  The Foster Care Support Foundation FCSF is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that provides clothing, equipment, and toys to at least 3000 foster and displaced children throughout the state of Georgia annually.  The services are free for those raised on basic state per-diem and for grandparents and relatives raising their grandchildren, nieces or nephews without the biological parent/s present in the home.  In 1996, Ewald began collecting and distributing clothing and toy donations from neighbors to give to local foster children in need.  The program and need grew quickly and the Foundation was incorporated in 2000.  Ewald, a foster parent herself of fourteen years to over 50 children and mother of four biological children, understood the difficulty of raising a child on fifty to seventy five cents per hour.  The center allows for more foster parents to afford to care for state children, while also allowing the children to acquire their own clothes, toys, and be much like any other child after losing everything when pulled from their biological homes.  The organization's donation/distribution center, located at 115 Mansell Place in Roswell GA is set up like a retail store and is fully stocked with clothing, toys, bikes, highchairs, and other necessities, where foster parents throughout the state can come, by appointment, and shop for free.  Rachel Ewald has also written a set of transition guidelines "Healthy Children, Healthy Adults" for foster care and adoption, with the intent of reducing disruption and trauma in foster and adoptive home and when reunifying children with their biological families.

Youth aging out of foster care, or transitioning out of the formal foster care system, are one of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged populations.  As youth age out of the foster care system at age 18, they are expected to become self-sufficient immediately, even though on average youth in the United States are not expected to reach self-sufficiency until age 26.
