Abstract
Improving adolescent to adult health care transitions (HCTs) would benefit all young people in the United States but has particular importance for the more than 120,000 adolescents and young adults (AYA) placed in foster care. Leveraging clinical guidelines and evidence-based interventions, HCT efforts inclusive of and specific to AYA placed in foster care can be strengthened through greater collaboration between child welfare, health care, and other AYA-serving systems. This Health Policy Brief advances the importance of structured Health Care Transition services for adolescents and young adults placed in foster care. Additionally, it highlights opportunities for health care providers, youth-serving systems, and health policy stakeholders to collaborate with child-welfare involved young people in order to prioritize evidence-based health care transition interventions.
