Transition Age Youth Homepage

Transition Age Youth (TAY) are young people between the ages of 16-25. Many major life changes can happening during this time frame: starting a first job, moving away from home, starting college, exploring new relationships, discovering your own identity.

Transitioning into adulthood can be exciting and stressful, too. By learning about the stressors commonly experienced by transition age youth, you can learn how to take care of your own wellness and recognize when it’s time to ask for help.
