Transitional and College Age Youth Focus Group
About
The Transitional and College Youth Committee will have as its primary focus the issues related to older adolescents and emerging adults through age 25 years who have special developmental issues and may be engaged in college and other types of secondary education, the military, or beginning their experience in the employed adult world. We also have a growing focus on transitional age youth who are "aging out of the foster care system" and require additional mental health support and resources.
