Young People in Transition

We all experience many transitions throughout our lives, this transition is the change from being a teenager to being an adult, and includes the new rights and responsibilities which happen during this period.  For some young people, this includes the transfer of support from children’s to adult services. 

It can also be defined as “a process that occurs when children move to adulthood, involving physical and
psychological development coupled with changes to roles and relationships with family and friends, staff and the
wider community.” (Commission for Social Care Inspection, 2007)
