Fostering Success Act Success Spotlight: Eric Tanenblatt

Staff Report

Eric Tanenblatt, Global Chair of Public Policy and Regulation at Dentons, is urging Georgia’s business and community leaders to take action and support foster youth through the Fostering Success Act.

Eric emphasizes the unique opportunity this program provides to redirect Georgia tax dollars toward critical resources for more than 700 youth aging out of foster care each year. 

“It provides them support and it allows resources to help them get that upper hand, whether it’s job training, education, housing, or transportation,” he explains.

For Eric, this isn’t just about helping foster youth; it’s also a smart investment for Georgia’s business community. “It’s in the best interest of Georgia businesses to be supportive of a program like this because this is a population that they’re going to enter the workforce if they’re properly trained and educated,” he says.

He challenges executives to join him in this effort and encourages others to get involved. Together, the business community can transform lives and strengthen Georgia’s workforce. Learn more about how you can participate at fosteringsuccessact.org.
