This is the first of two briefing papers on factors affecting young people’s transition to adulthood.
The briefing looks in detail at some factors affecting young adults in the areas covered by the three Transition to Adulthood (T2A) pilots: Birmingham, Worcestershire and the two London boroughs of Croydon and Southwark. It has implications for understanding the specific challenges facing these areas.
It also highlights the divergent life chances and outcomes for young adults who are born and grow up in different parts of the country.
By looking in detail at the experiences of young adults that are a particular focus for the T2A Alliance, it sheds light on some of the challenges affecting policy and practice relating to young adults.
