Abstract 

Career and technical education (CTE) educators may have little information on youth transitioning from the foster care system to adulthood (transitioning youth), including their circumstances and the effects of leaving their birth family, living in foster care, and transitioning to adulthood.

By their very nature, career and technical education (CTE) programs supported by the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, as amended by the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act (Perkins V) span secondary and postsecondary education and strive to reflect state, regional, and local labor markets. CTE programs help to underpin America’s workforce and seek to engage young people and adult learners at an economy of scale needed to address employer needs. The education industry is at a critical point, struggling to find its future workforce. It is important that CTE be part of a comprehensive strategy at the state and local levels to address this challenge.
