Methodology

The numbers represent delivered ILP services. An entry was counted if the service was delivered to youth during the six-month reporting period, and if the youth was in an active placement episode during the period. While a youth may receive more than one service of different types, services of the same type were counted only once per youth. Data are generated separately for CWD and probation youth.

Includes: 1) Youth ages 15.5 – 20 years old on the start date of service delivery 2) Youth in an open episode during the report period, while at any time during ages 16-20, he/she either had a court-ordered case or was a ward of the state

Excludes: 1) Youth who received ILP services but were not in active placement episodes during the reporting period 2) ILP service types that are not reportable for NYTD 3) Placement episodes that were open only for one day or less

Independent living services included in this report are listed below. Some service types are grouped together as they would be in NYTD.
