Young ladies who have been under state care for a period, upon reaching the age of 18 – the legal age of an adult- are no longer wards of the state and therefore no longer under state care. Many of these young ladies under state care would usually reside in State managed homes until the age of 18 and it has been seen that upon leaving State care these young women seem to fall into unhealthy situations for example, abusive relationships, living in unsupportive environments, prostitution, drugs and drug trafficking, teenage pregnancy and dead end jobs.
