无家可归的年轻人面临着对其健康和福祉的严重威胁，虽然我们对这些风险了解不少，但对目前为减轻这些风险而提供的服务的有用性了解得更少。过渡性生活方案是美国联邦政府为解决青年无家可归问题而执行的三项核心战略之一。这种现象学的定性研究的目的是了解随着时间的推移，由TLP直接从以前无家可归的青年的角度提供的住房和支持服务的影响。数据收集，通过深入，半结构化的采访与32名年轻人谁退出位于芝加哥，伊利诺伊州之间1和11年前的TLP。与会者认为，TLP是我们解决青年无家可归问题的解决方案的重要组成部分，确定了家庭，个人联系，社区和准备的主题，他们认为只有TLP才有资格成为住房危机时期适合青年发展的计划模式。(C)2016爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Young people experiencing homelessness face severe threats to their health and well-being and while we know quite a bit about these risks, much less is understood about the usefulness of the services currently being provided to mitigate them. Transitional living programs (TLPs) are one of three core strategies executed by the federal government of the United States to address youth homelessness. The purpose of this phenomenological, qualitative study was to understand the impact over time of the housing and support services provided by a TLP directly from the perspectives of formerly homeless youth. Data was collected through in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 32 young people who exited a TLP located in Chicago, Illinois between 1 and 11 years ago. Participants believed TLPs to be an essential part of our solution to address youth homelessness, identifying themes of family, individual connections, community and preparedness that they believe uniquely qualify TLPs as a developmentally-appropriate program model for youth in times of housing crisis.
