Abstract

Prior literature using data from the National Youth in Transition Database (NYTD) has found that rates of independent living services (ILS) receipt are not uniform across youth aging out of foster care. At least two gaps in this literature remain: Research has been limited to cross sectional analyses and the degree to which specific placement types associate with ILS receipt is unclear. Additionally, given high rates of delinquency among transition aged youth, research on youth receiving ILS needs to prioritize understanding how child welfare system trajectories predict dual-system onset. Using a multistate model and administrative data in the United States, this study asks the following questions: (1) How does ILS receipt vary as a function of placement type? and (2) Among youth who receive ILS, how does placement type associate with dual system involvement onset?
