Promoting Permanency for Older Youth in Out-of-Home Care
Permanency efforts should include both legal permanency (e.g., reunification, adoption, kinship care) and relational permanency (i.e., a relationship or connection with a caring adult, such as a relative, neighbor, service provider, teacher, or other important person in the youth’s life). This bulletin provides information for child welfare professionals about the importance of permanency—both legal and relational—for older youth and strategies for achieving it.
