The transition to adulthood is an important process with implications for inequality. Both those with disabilities and those who age of out of foster care are vulnerable during this transition. This project examines the intersection of these groups, exploring employment, education, and disability benefit receipt, the supports these youth receive, and how these supports may mitigate risk in this transition. Findings suggest that those with emotional or mental disabilities face employment risks in the transition to adulthood, and that services may mitigate some of this risk and present unique benefits for youth with disabilities. For example, the odds of employment are greater and the odds of receiving disability benefits are lower among those who receive academic supports (orFTE=1.3, orSSI/SSDI==0.7), post-secondary supports (orFTE=1.3, orSSI/SSDI=0.8), education financial assistance (orPTE=1.3, orSSI/SSDI=0.7), and career services (orPTE=1.3, orSSI/SSDI=0.8). These services should be prioritized for funding, especially education financial assistance as a lower proportion of youth with disabilities receive than their non-disabled peers.

LGTBQ+ youth in foster care need unique support and acceptance; however, few case workers and caregivers receive specialized training. To address this, the Connecting: Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Expression (SOGIE) eLearning was developed. This evaluation assesses whether attitudes and behavioral intentions regarding LGBTQ+ youth improved as a result of this training. Caregivers and child welfare professionals showed growth in many areas, including how important they felt it was to learn strategies and skills to support LGBTQ+ youth, as well as their confidence to care for LGBTQ+ youth. The Connecting: SOGIE eLearning is a promising tool for child welfare systems.
