Leaving out‐of‐home care is a challenging situation not only for young people leaving care but also for the child welfare system. However, systematic and multiorganizational transitional programmes are often lacking. This study investigated Switzerland's first large‐scale care leaver programme and analysed associations between care leavers' needs and contactability in a sample of 459 care leavers. A first track compared the characteristics of successfully contacted care leavers and of not contactable care leavers (‘dropouts’). The second track analysed the association between need for support and self‐rated or proxy‐rated quality of life in the subsample of 235 successfully contacted care leavers. Odds for indicators of lower educational attainment were substantially increased for dropouts. Additionally, self‐reported need for support was significantly associated with lower self‐ratings of quality of life in seven areas. Care leavers who accepted the programme's offer of coaching rated their quality of life lower than participants who reported no need for support and participants who reported a need for support but turned down coaching. For successfully contacted care leavers, the programme gave access to coaching sessions to the young people the most in need. However, dropouts appeared more vulnerable and might therefore benefit even more from aftercare support.

护理人员的需求和可及性：瑞士第一个大型项目的发现

离开家庭照料不仅对离开照料的年轻人，而且对于儿童福利系统都是充满挑战的情况。但是，通常缺乏系统的和多组织的过渡计划。这项研究调查了瑞士第一个大规模的护理离开者计划，并从459名护理离开者的样本中分析了护理离开者的需求与接触能力之间的关联。第一条轨迹比较了成功联系离职者和不接触离职者（“辍学者”）的特征。第二条轨迹在235名成功联系护理人员的子样本中分析了支持需求与自我评估或代理评估的生活质量之间的关联。辍学率大大降低了受教育程度指标的几率。另外，自我报告的支持需求与七个地区生活质量的自我评价较低有关。接受该计划提供的指导的护理离开者的生活质量低于报告为不需要支持的参与者和报告为需要支持但拒绝指导的参与者。对于成功联系护理人员的计划，该计划为最需要帮助的年轻人提供了辅导课程。但是，辍学显得更加脆弱，因此可能会从善后支持中受益更多。根据提供的教练，他们的生活质量要比那些不需要支持的参与者和那些需要支持但拒绝指导的参与者低。对于成功联系护理人员的计划，该计划为最需要帮助的年轻人提供了辅导课程。但是，辍学显得更加脆弱，因此可能会从善后支持中受益更多。根据提供的教练，他们的生活质量要比那些不需要支持的参与者和那些需要支持但拒绝指导的参与者低。对于成功联系护理人员的计划，该计划为最需要帮助的年轻人提供了辅导课程。但是，辍学显得更加脆弱，因此可能会从善后支持中受益更多。
