摘要

許多研究結果指出離院青年若未接受良好的離院準備，其離院後的社區適應將會有不良的影響，包括低教育成就、高失業、無家可歸、孤獨、年輕父母、依賴政府補助、藥物濫用、法律問題、精神健康問題等。為了解台灣離院自立青年的生活現況，研究者運用問卷調查收集資料，立意取樣89位個案，根據結果提出建議包括：強化安置照顧經驗、落實自立培訓與離院準備、建立離院照顧政策，以及評估自立生活協助方案之成效。

Some researches of children after care indicated that care leavers were still in an inferiority status. Children in care were not well-prepared when they leave their placement, thus have long-term negative impacts on these vulnerable children. Based on these results, young care leavers have low educational attainment, higher unemployment, more likely to be homeless in adulthood, loneliness, young parenthood, dependent on state benefits, higher levels of substance abuse, in trouble with the law, and poorer physical health. In order to understand the life experiences of care leavers and their social adaptation in Taiwan, researchers applied survey to collected 89 cases. Some implications were discussed to reshape and modify our service system toward care leavers, including: good care experiences, leaver preparations, leaving care policy and effective evaluations need to be established.
