Youth in transition

The transition from adolescence to adulthood is a big time in a child's life. What comes after school? How do you plan for adult life? As a parent or family member, it's also a big time for you! Some supports and services stop when a child turns 18, and others have new names and new rules. Learn to navigate these changes as you identify what a good life looks like for your child - and how to access the resources that will make it possible.

Help your child imagine and plan for a meaningful adult life by exploring their goals, dreams and what matters most to them. Together, you can build a vision for their best life and identify the resources to make it possible.

This section covers:

  • Independence

    Support your child's independence by nurturing self-determination and informed decision-making.

  • Postsecondary Education

    Set high expectations for postsecondary education or training to prepare your child for future opportunities.

  • Employment

    Help your child see a future that involves meaningful work based on personal strengths, interests and goals.

  • Health

    Foster the confidence and skills your child will need to navigate healthcare into adulthood.
