3 – Transition to Adulthood – Assess Needs and Track Goals

Information
Assess and Track

CASAs and youth benefit from having a way to assess and track the specific needs and document their goals for each life skill. The Foster Club Transition Kit outlines suggested routes for each category filled with checkpoints of important factors that contribute to a successful road to adulthood.

Each route has 1 page of information about the category’s skills or actions important on that route.

In addition, each category has a 1 page template to track progress and set goals.

CASAs may choose to begin one that most interests their youth to establish a connection or – based upon age and situation – the areas most critical.
