Transitional Age Youth

After your 18^th birthday, you can no longer get services from the same systems of care that supported you when you were a child. Like many young people, you may be struggling to get started in adult life.

All Community Health Plan of Washington (CHPW) members ages 15-25 are eligible for Transitional Age Youth (TAY) Case Management services. Transitional Age Youth are young people between the ages of 15 and 25 who will age out of pediatric services and shift to adult services.

CHPW Case Managers and Care Coordinators offer referrals to behavioral health providers who have special programs designed to meet your needs. These programs are created with your needs and stage of life in mind, and are built around you as an individual.

Services may include:

Casey Life Skills Assessment (CLSA) and plan
Educational support
Help getting housing
Employment support
Help establishing stable and healthy connections
Case management
Funding (for self-sufficiency and/or obtaining transitional living goals)

When appropriate, your Case Manager may refer you to the Transitional Living Program through the Washington State Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF).
