National Youth in Transition Database - Outcomes Survey
States report information from two reporting populations: (1) The Served Population which is information on all youth receiving at least one independent living services paid or provided by the Chafee Program agency, and (2) Youth completing the NYTD Survey. States survey youth regarding six outcomes: financial self-sufficiency, experience with homelessness, educational attainment, positive connections with adults, high-risk behaviors, and access to health insurance. States collect outcomes information by conducting a survey of youth in foster care on or around their 17th birthday, also referred to as the baseline population. States will track these youth as they age and conduct a new outcome survey on or around the youth's 19th birthday; and again on or around the youth's 21st birthday, also referred to as the follow-up population. States will collect outcomes information on these older youth at ages 19 or 21 regardless of their foster care status or whether they are still receiving independent living services from the State. Depending on the size of the State's foster care youth population, some States may conduct a random sample of the baseline population of the 17-year-olds that participate in the outcomes survey so that they can follow a smaller group of youth as they age. All States will collect and report outcome information on a new baseline population cohort every three years.

"description": "The Outcomes component (this dataset) contains the results of surveys conducted with youth to examine certain well-being, financial, and educational outcomes as they get older. Data from a survey on outcomes for a cohort of youth is provided every other year beginning with federal fiscal year 2011 (Oct 1, 2010 through Sep 30, 2011). There are three phases of outcome data for a given cohort -- a baseline survey during the year of the youth’s 17 birthday, and two follow-ups: one at age 19, one at age 21. New cohorts will be established every three years (2014, 2017, 2020…) after the initial one in FY2011. Temporal: 10/01/2016-09/30/2017, 10/01/2018-9/30/2019, 10/01/2020-9/30/2021, Restriction: Restricted-use Micro, Formats: R, SAS, SPSS, STATA",
