The Foster Care Initiative Fund was established with the profits from a set of videos produced by Ellis. The videos train foster families nationwide about different types of substance abuse. Many of them reach college age without the resources, or the hope, of going to college. Students who have been in foster care are eligible for tuition and partial fee waivers at SWT and other state run schools under a law enacted in 1993. These students, however, are still forced to pay for room and board.
