Abstract

Care Leaver Statistics (CLS study) is the first Germany-wide panel study across all providers to focus on the transitions undergone by youth and emerging adults leaving out-of-home care. It examines their perspectives for societal participation during their life course transitions. At the beginning of the longitudinal study, the participants are 16 up to and including 19-years-old. The survey reaches around 1.500 care leavers, accompany them in seven survey waves and collect data on multidimensional perspectives for societal participation. In addition to sociodemographic data, data will be recorded on relevant dimensions such as institutional constellations prior to leaving care, opportunities for complaints and participation, sense of coherence, social networks, housing, health, school qualifications and education, employment, financial situation and leisure time.
