Thesis (Ph.D.)--Michigan State University, 2013.
Thousands of young people in the United States are terminated from foster care services each year because they have reached the age of ineligibility, commonly referred to as "aging out." These young women and men face the challenges of adulthood with whatever survival skills they have acquired during childhoods marked by abuse, neglect, loss, and instability. Studies indicate that a significant number of these youth are not prepared to secure and maintain the resources they need to succeed in adulthood such as stable housing, steady employment, and continued education.

Thousands of young people in the United States are terminated from foster care services each year because they have reached the age of ineligibility, commonly referred to as "aging out."

Among those who age out of foster care are young people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT). Although research has increased an understanding of the experiences of LGBT youth while in foster care, studies focusing on their experiences while transitioning out of this system and into adulthood have been largely absent in the literature. This qualitative study is an effort to address this gap in the research. Using a modified grounded theory approach, this study explores the experiences of 10 ethnically diverse LGBT youth, between the ages of 18 and 25, as they attempted to obtain housing, employment, and education after aging out of foster care. Also examined were study participants' perceptions about the preparation they received during foster care and the support they were given after foster care to successfully transition to adulthood Of particular interest to this study were the youths' perceptions about whether their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression had an impact on their experiences of aging out of foster care and achieving self-sufficiency.

Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 10 ethnically diverse youth, between the ages of 18 and 25, who had aged out of foster care, and identified as LGBT or questioning their sexual orientation or gender identity. Results from this study support previous findings that youth who age out of the foster care system have a difficult time transitioning to adulthood, particularly in their efforts to obtain and maintain housing, employment, and education. Furthermore, the majority of the young people in this study reported discrimination and rejection because of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression while they were in foster care or transitioning to independence. This discrimination came from peers, birth families, foster families, as well as child welfare staff. More research and education is needed at all levels of the foster care system regarding the needs of LGBT youth who are in or aging out of care. More education is needed for policymakers, foster care workers, foster parents, and biological family members regarding the needs of LGBT youth who are aging out of care. Implications for policy, research, and practice are also discussed.
