Families play an essential role in assisting youth to make the right choices at the right times based on the right information as they transition to adulthood. This webinar introduces a new resource guide, “The Family Guideposts: Engaging in Youth Transition,” which highlights specific action steps that parents and other adult caregivers can take to support their youth in transition across five key areas of their lives to maximum independence and success in adulthood.
Learn what actions families can take to become fully informed about options, support their youth to create and purse their life goals, and advocate for improvements so that their youth and all youth benefit from high quality academic and career transition opportunities.
