| Publisher Description: The report presents a rigorous retrospective analysis of the costs and benefits of LifeSet, a Youth Villages program that provides case management and other services for young adults, ages 17 to 22, aging out of the foster care system. The analysis examines the resources required to implement LifeSet-and therefore program costs-and the economic value of the effects of the program, based on a prior impact evaluation conducted in Tennessee. |
