EMERGING ADULT GROUPS

​

Emerging adulthood is a stage of life between the ages of 18 and 29 that is characterized by the exploration of new identities in the shift from adolescence to adulthood. Within a sense of great possibilities ahead, it can also be a time of increasing responsibility, pressure and uncertainty.
