Season 2 Finale
In this episode of Resilient Voices & Beyond, I hosted a conversation with my fellow NYTD colleagues Teshiana S-Nichols is an Allegheny County Educational Liaison, National Foster Youth Advocate, Jim & Annie E. Casey ACOMM Member, Contracted Federal Consultant, NYTD Reviewer. Daniel Woodruff is an Employment Navigator at the National Resource Center For Youth Services & Trainer, Foster Youth Advocate, NYTD Reviewer, and NYTD Support Coach. On this podcast, we talked about the National Youth in Transition Database (NYTD), how we got involved, and the roles we play as NYTD Reviewers and NYTD Support Coache. Also, we mentioned how to get involved in NYTD locally or nationally but also how to join similar programs and opportunities.
What is NYTD / NYTD Reviewer:
The National Youth in Transition Database (NYTD) is a mandatory federal reporting system that collects data from states about youth demographics, the services youth receive, and the outcomes they experience as they transition out of foster care. The data are used to determine how, and how well, states prepare youth for adulthood.
NYTD Reviewers provide unique expertise as youth with lived experience in the child welfare system as they participate on the federal team in case record reviews that assess the accuracy and appropriateness of services delivered to youth in foster care; conduct stakeholder interviews with state personnel and other young people to understand how a state has implemented NYTD data collection, analysis, and use; and provide assistance with the final state report that summarizes findings and recommendations from the review.
