Minors Aging into Adulthood
If a client is under 18 years of age but turns 18 during an active enrollment (no exit date yet), you must update their Prior Living Situation information.
- If the minor cannot be interviewed, the Head of Households information for that enrollment can be used to update the minors record.
* Helpful hint: If a client is likely to turn 18 during an enrollment, collect and enter their data at the time of enrollment to avoid having to go back and collect the information at a later date!
