Purpose: The purpose of the current phenomenological study was to identify and describe the perceptions of emancipated foster youth (EFY) regarding the factors that have impacted their successful transition into adulthood. The secondary purpose of this study was to describe the measures EFY considers essential for a successful transition from foster care to independent living.Methodology: This qualitative study identified and described the lived experiences of 12 emancipated foster youth from Los Angeles County, California. Respondents were purposively chosen based on specific criteria. Data were collected, and themes were formed with regard to five characteristics of the emerging adulthood theoretical framework.Findings: Qualitative data from this study identified that many of the emancipated foster youth leave the foster care system without many essential skills necessary for a successful transition into adulthood and independent living.Conclusions: Emancipated foster youth are not prepared to become productive and successful members of society once they are emancipated from foster care. Many of these youths do not receive continued mental and behavioral health care once they have been emancipated from the foster care system. These youth require active support and resources to navigate their journey into productive adulthood.Recommendations: It is recommended that additional research around advocates and mentors that support emancipated foster youth as they transition into adulthood. Additional research should also be conducted on the mental and behavioral outcomes of emancipated foster youth as well.
