Transitions (between adult and children services)
Adolescence and young adulthood is a time of vast physiological, psychological, social and contextual changes. Young people with service and care needs during this period need to move from child to adult systems. This process is often referred to as transitions. One of these transitions is moving from Child Protection to Adult Support and Protection. The resources in this category will support effective transitions between these systems for young people at risk of harm.
