| Report Provides
Insights into the Employment Training and Job Placement Needs of Foster Youth | |
| This Chapin Hall report describes the results of a study that used
administrative data to better understand the need for employment-related
services and supports among youth in foster care and how one community-based
employment training and job placement program is trying to address those needs.
The report highlights the characteristics and placement histories of the foster
youth the program serves, their engagement in employment training activities,
and their placement in subsidized jobs.
