<br/><br/> "A rare study of young adults on the verge of leaving foster care systems reveals a bleak portrait of these 17-year-olds in Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa. Many are lagging desperately behind in school, running into trouble with the law and struggling with psychological problems." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article presents the results of the study by the Chapin Hall Center for Children at the University of Chicago which provides a glimpse of some of the problems facing these young people, "once removed from their homes because of abuse or neglect," and "now preparing to exit the child welfare system as adults."
