SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The Foster Care Independence Act of 1999, Public Law
106-169 (42 U.S.C. 1305 et seq.), requires State child welfare agencies
to collect and report to ACF data on the characteristics of youth
receiving independent living services and information regarding their
outcomes. The regulation implementing the National Youth in Transition
Database, listed in 45 CFR 1356.80, contains standard data collection
and reporting requirements for States to meet the law's requirements.
Additionally, the Family First Prevention Services Act of 2017, Public
Law 115-123 (42 U.S.C. 677(e)) further outlines the expectation of the
collection and reporting of data and outcomes regarding youth who are
in receipt of independent living services. ACF will continue to use the
information collected under the regulation to track independent living
services, assess the collective outcomes of youth, and potentially to
evaluate State performance with regard to those outcomes consistent
with the law's mandate.
Respondents: State agencies that administer the Chafee Foster Care
Program for Successful Transition to Adulthood (Chafee program) report
on the young people who are served by the program and who complete the
youth outcomes survey.
