This paper examines the efforts of a court to improve outcomes for older youth who are exiting foster care by implementing an Emancipation Checklist (EC) to guide discussion around 12 stability indicators thought to improve youth transition to adulthood (e.g., education, employment). Over 90% of youth had medical insurance, all personal documents, a permanent connection, and could identify their core values. Less than half were employed or engaged in educational or vocational training. Youth who exited when they were older and who attended more of their court hearings had more stability indicators. Implications and future research directions are discussed.

探索使用解放清单的年轻人（18-21岁）退出寄养服务

本文研究了法院通过实施《解放清单》（EC）来指导围绕旨在改善青年向成年过渡（例如教育，就业）的12项稳定指标的讨论，以改善正在退出寄养服务的老年青年的努力。超过90％的年轻人拥有医疗保险，所有个人文件，具有永久联系并且可以确定其核心价值。受雇或从事教育或职业培训的人不到一半。年纪大了就退出并参加更多庭审的年轻人的稳定性指标就更高。涵义和未来的研究方向进行了讨论。
