National Youth in Transition Database Data Briefs
These short reports summarize findings from State NYTD data submissions compiled by the Children's Bureau.
NYTD Data Snapshots
Snapshots offer a glimpse of National and State trends for young people who are receiving Independent Living Services through state child welfare programs. Additionally, we are able to observe some statistical trends about who those young people are, their experiences and outcomes for those both in care and formerly in care.
