Transition Age Youth (TAY) programs provide an array of mental health and supportive services for Seriously Emotionally Disturbed (SED) and Severely Mentally Ill (SMI) youth ages 16-25. TAY programs focus on a number of priority populations to receive these services, along with a specific emphasis on outreaching and engaging TAY who are currently unserved and underserved.
Priority populations include the following:
- TAY struggling with substance abuse disorders
- TAY who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness
- TAY aging out of the children’s mental health, child welfare, or juvenile justice systems
- TAY leaving long-term institutional care
- TAY experiencing their first episode of major mental illness
