A longitudinal evaluation of the Jim Casey Youth Opportunities Initiative is examining the impact of policies and practices on the well-being of young people who are aging out of foster care. To date, research has linked policy and practice changes to higher graduation and GED rates in several states, and to increased access to health insurance in Iowa.
