Pros
You get to share your lived experience with current or former foster youth.
Cons
Since it was a Pilot Program a lot of the logistics of the program was fairly new. They received funding from DCFS to pay community ambassadors but if you know anything about DCFS they have a six week turnaround for everything. (Applications, checks, approvals etc.) most of the time the pay was late or we were compensated thru Ifoster and you would sign over the DCFS check back since we were paid in advance.. not good because we never really knew if we would have paycheck.
