WE MEASURE IMPACT IN THREE WAYS: 1) POLICY CHANGE; 2) MEDIA PICKUP; AND 3) READERSHIP.POLICY CHANGE: FMC'S COVERAGE HAS REPEATEDLY DRIVEN POLICY CHANGE AT THE LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL LEVEL. SINCE LAUNCHING IN 2010, FMC HAS BEEN CRITICAL TO CHANGING FEDERAL LAW AFFECTING THE EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS OF FOSTER YOUTH, EXTENDING THE FOSTER CARE TO AGE 21 IN CALIFORNIA AND A WIDE RANGE OF REFORMS IN OUR HOME BASE OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY. FOR EXAMPLE, OUR COVERAGE OF THE STATES' FAILURE TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FEDERAL EVERY STUDENT SUCCEEDS ACT FOSTER CARE MANDATES LED TO MILLIONS OF NEW DOLLARS SPENT TO PROVIDE RIDES TO SCHOOL FOR FOSTER YOUTH IN CALIFORNIA, RHODE ISLAND AND COLORADO.MEDIA PICKUP: KEY TO DRIVING POLICY CHANGE IS FMC'S AGGRESSIVE DISSEMINATION STRATEGY. IN FY 17-18, OTHER OUTLETS INCLUDING THE NY TIMES, THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, NPR, THE L.A. TIMES AND MANY OTHERS, FOLLOWED OUR WORK 751 TIMES. READERSHIP: FMC'S AUDIENCE RANGES FROM CHILD WELFARE AND JUVENILE JUSTICE WORKERS TO POLICYMAKERS, MEMBERS OF THE MEDIA AND YOUTH.
