Former Foster Child Employment Preference
Texas Government Code Chapter 672 requires that former foster youth who were in the permanent managing conservatorship of the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services on the day preceding the individual's 18th birthday be accorded preference in employment with state agencies over other applicants for the same position who do not have a greater qualification. An individual is entitled to an employment preference only if the individual is 25 years of age or younger (day before turning 26).
