LifeSet is a therapeutic case management program that provides youth and young adults leaving foster care, juvenile justice, and mental health systems with the intensive in-home support and guidance they need in the transition to adulthood. The current LifeSet evaluation has two main components: an impact study to assess the effects of program participation on outcomes of interest and an implementation study to describe and document how LifeSet is implemented in New Jersey. The study is intended to contribute to the evidence base on program models that support young adults in the transition out of foster care. Project activities for the impact study include three waves of youth surveys and collection of administrative and program data. Project activities for the implementation study include interviews and focus groups with key staff and study youth. To date, 439 youth have been randomized and 193 youth have completed the baseline youth survey (Instrument 1). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, collection of the baseline youth surveys to date has been conducted by phone. The project team’s IRB has recently approved in-person collection with procedures that mitigate the risk of participants contracting COVID-19. The project team’s IRB required additional language regarding COVID-19 risk be added to respondent consent forms and outreach materials. This nonsubstantive change is intended to ensure participants are fully informed on the risks of in-person participation and the option to participate by phone if desired. It does not alter the purpose of the data collection, nor the expected uses of the data as approved by OMB in September 2021, October 2021, January 2022, and May 2022.
