Navigating Life’s Biggest Transition: Essential Skills for Young Adults
Of life’s many transitions, the most challenging may occur from adolescence to adulthood. For the first time, young adults must care for themselves—as well as for others. Living On Your Own provides instruction in the foundational skills needed to develop lasting social, life, and career skills. The series’ engaging narrative, high-impact graphics, and other components enhance the learning experience.
Appropriate for ages 16 and up, Living On Your Own is perfect for Job Corps Centers, Juvenile Justice programs, students aging out of foster care programs, re-entry programs, and any other program working with students who need instruction on living on their own. These skills cover more than just pre-employment and work maturity skills, covering all areas of life including health, communications, money and budgeting, and transportation among other things.
