Family Connect/PATH is a Treatment Foster Care agency that provides services in the states of Minnesota, North Dakota, and Idaho. Treatment Foster Care is a unique model of care that provides the best components of traditional foster care and residential care (Foster Family-­‐Based Treatment Association, 2004). There is an increase interest in exploring the provision of Treatment Foster Care for adjudicated youth. The purpose of this Capstone project is to determine the evidence-­‐based components or models for working with adjudicated delinquent youth in foster care and make recommendations to Family Connect/PATH.
