Society for the Study of Emerging Adulthood

The Society for the Study of Emerging Adulthood is a professional organization dedicated to researching and understanding the unique developmental stage known as "emerging adulthood," which typically occurs between the late teens and mid-20s. This period is characterized by exploration and identity formation as young people navigate education, careers, relationships, and personal values. The society brings together researchers, scholars, and practitioners to share findings, promote awareness, and address the challenges and opportunities faced by emerging adults. By studying this phase of life, the society aims to improve support systems and policies that affect young adults during this critical transition.
