Abstract

Research suggests adolescents leaving residential treatment programs have higher levels of unemployment and homelessness than average. This exploratory study examined what types of career development curricula are being used in residential treatment programs. The findings suggest that most residential treatment programs use little to no career development curriculum. The long-term goal is to support the critical need and development of a specialized career development curriculum for adolescents residing in residential group home programs.
