The Work Appreciation for Youth (WAY) program is much more than an employment program. It is a long-term aftercare program for youth leaving the foster care system. This report is based on a 15-year study showing what happens to at-risk youth leaving residential treatment who are provided with long-term follow-up services focused on school, work, and personal development. The results: overall evidence that the young people in WAY have been set on a solid path toward self-sufficiency.

Download On Your Own without a Net Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In the decade after high school, young people continue to rely on their families in many ways-sometimes for financial support, sometimes for help with childcare, and sometimes for continued shelter. But what about those young people who confront special difficulties during this period, many of whom can count on little help from their families? On Your Own Without a Net documents the special challenges facing seven vulnerable populations during the transition to adulthood: former foster care youth, youth formerly involved in the juvenile justice system, youth in the criminal justice system, runaway and homeless youth, former special education students, young people in the mental health system, and youth with physical disabilities. During adolescence, government programs have been a major part of their lives, yet eligibility for most programs typically ends between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one. This critical volume shows the unfortunate repercussions of this termination of support and points out the issues that must be addressed to improve these young people's chances of becoming successful adults.
