Legal Question in Family Law in Washington

Amanstipation

Can you get amanstipated while living in foster care?

If your parents died before going to foster care and have money for you when you trun 18, can you collect if amanstipated at 16? Graduated highschool early 16 years old, and want to start going to college.
