Brief Summary: In Canada between 36 and 77 of children under 19 years old are thought to have a chronic health condition that results in disability or limits to activity These young people have difficulty finding jobs attending school living independently and forming relationships with other people These poorer life outcomes are partly the result of a lack of life skills Life skills include the ability to solve problems and set goals which allows youth to deal with the demands of everyday life Several childrens treatment centres in Ontario offer short-term residential immersive life skills RILS programs to provide youth with these life skills to help them take on adult roles RILS programs are very promising in terms of making a long-term difference in youths lives because they provide a place where youth can learn by doing working with peers and taking risks in a safe environment However we do not yet know how well skills that are learned in RILS programs are kept up as time passes or how well RILS programs support broader skills such as the ability to make ones own choices

The proposed research will examine these issues and will ask the following questions

1 What opportunities are youth given when they participate in RILS programs What specific strategies do RILS service providers use to support youth in learning life skills
2 How do youth experience and perceive their participation in a RILS program before during and after they take part What do their parents expect and experience in terms of their childs participation and
3 What changes do youth experience particularly in terms of their ability to make choices for themselves and their sense of being able to cope with things that come up in their lives The study will involve youth from several treatment centres in Ontario over the next three years

Youth who are attending RILS programs will be compared with

1 youth who are similar to the RILS youth but who are taking part in a life skills program that is not residential
2 youth who applied to a RILS program and were accepted but who will take part in the program in a different year and
3 a group of youth who are similar to the RILS youth but who are not taking part in any life skills program

Youth will provide data at four time points before the program starts immediately after the program finishes three months after the program is over and 12 months after the program is over
