July 2008
 Evaluation of the Life Skills Training Program: Los Angeles County
The federal Administration for Children and Families contracted with the
Urban Institute, Chapin Hall Center for Children, and the National
Opinion Research Center to evaluate services offered under the Foster
Care Independence Act of 1999 to provide support to youth making the
transition to independent living. This is the final report on the results
of an evaluation of the Los Angeles County, California classroom-based
life-skills training (LST) program. The evaluation found that LST,
delivered in a classroom setting has
little impact on foster care youths.
