What happens when a child is no longer eligible for a grant?
Answer. When a child is no longer eligible for a grant, such as when the child reaches age 18 and completes high school, the grant funding stops. Discharge planning should begin at the time services are started at the residential placement or local mental health agency. The child may still be eligible for other services from the local mental health agency. If the child has turned 21 years old or graduated high school, the Office of Mental Health’s adult network may provide services. The ICG Office can assist the family or residential placement in linking the young adult to the adult network and in identifying these service providers.
