Federal Eligibility
• Federal eligibility is based on the determination made when the youth originally entered care.
• No redetermination is made if the youth moves directly into extended care with no break in service.
![Page 8: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

What if…• There is no placement
order?– No eligibility for extended
foster care– But can receive services
by maintaining jurisdiction
– Reconsider: placing with relatives under “return to parent” order
![Page 10: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Transition Jurisdiction• The youth has achieved rehabilitative
goals• The youth cannot be returned safely
to the parental home• It is in the youth’s best interest to
remain in EFC • The youth is 17.5 years old & has
permanent plan as the case plan goal• The youth is age 18 and over and in a
foster care placement as a delinquent

Brain Tour
• Upsurge in synaptic growth
• Pruning of new pathways possible
• Results in neuroplasticity
• May limit identification of reward cues
![Page 24: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

2525
Brain Tour
• Dopamine neurotransmission in striatal and cortical systems peaks
• Leads to temporary sensitivity to rewards
• It feels good now, do it and then the feeling quickly disappears
![Page 26: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
2626
Brain Tour
• Still in ventral striatum• If reward is delayed or
future, under stimulation to the striatum
• Discover and stress more immediate rewards in behavior
![Page 27: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
2727
Brain Tour
• Immediate rewards lead to over activity in ventral striatum
• If it feels good right now, it feels REALLY good
![Page 28: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
2828
Brain Tour• Orbitofrontal cortex and
medial prefrontal cortex involved in decision making
• Under stimulated during probabilistic decision making
• The “it happens to others but it won’t happen to me” complex
![Page 29: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
2929
Brain Tour
• Amygdala is part of the limbic system
• Primary functions are related to memory, emotion and fear
• Hyperactivity results in limits to avoidant behavior
![Page 30: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
3030
Brain Tour
• Development of circuits that support inhibitory control is protracted
• Immediate reward is enhanced at expense of longer term reward
![Page 31: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Successful Youth Development• Presence of
positive attributes• Enables youth to
reach full potential as productive and engaged
• Elements that contribute to positive sense of self
![Page 32: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
3232
Agency• Sense of volition over self-generated acts • Sense of self as an active, independent agent
which forms the basis for a sense of self-efficacy• Positive and strong sense of self-efficacy
enhances adjustment & well-being as individuals set challenging goals, sustain effort & recover in the face of failure
• Individuals may build self-confidence by developing beliefs in their capabilities
![Page 33: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
3333
Self-esteem• Global self-esteem reflects a general self-
evaluation that provides a type of composite assessment across multiple domains
• Individuals are more likely to gravitate to settings that provide opportunities to enhance self-esteem
• Healthy adjustment is related not only to global self-esteem but to specific domains and the opportunity for engagement and success in those domains
![Page 34: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
3434
Self-Control• Self-control is related to brain maturation• Individual temperamental, neurobiological
and care giving contribute to development of individual differences in self-control
• Self-control is a prerequisite for goal-oriented behavior across multiple domains
• Goal setting and goal pursuit is related to self-control and an important indicator of adjustment and risk
![Page 35: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
3535
Decision-Making Skills• Capacity to make effective decisions also increases
during adolescence with development of more sophisticated abstract reasoning skills and growing capacity for probabilistic reasoning
• Less able to plan for or anticipate the future• Less able to generate consequences spontaneously• Less able to learn from negative consequences in their
experience• Less able to view negative consequences as harmful• Overestimate risk and just as likely to feel vulnerable• Perceived benefits are more likely to drive decisions
![Page 36: The Resource Center for Family-Focused Practice Center for Human Services UC Davis Extension.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051621/56649f1c5503460f94c32da5/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
3636
Moral System of Belief• Judgments about moral issues such as
harm, fairness, integrity and responsibility
