Supporting Young Adults as They Transition into Independence
The Challenge: The Pressure of Adulthood Can Feel Overwhelming
Young adulthood is supposed to be exciting, full of opportunities, and a time of self-discovery. But for many, it’s also stressful, confusing, and filled with uncertainty. The transition from structured life—whether from school, home, or college—into the “real world” can feel like standing at the edge of a cliff with no clear path forward.
- 🔹 Career & Academic Uncertainty—“What am I supposed to do with my life?”
- 🔹 Financial Stress—Budgeting, rent, student loans, and real-world financial responsibility.
- 🔹 Loneliness & Relationship Struggles—Moving away from friends, breakups, and building new connections.
- 🔹 Emotional Burnout—Balancing responsibilities while trying to stay mentally healthy.
- 🔹 Imposter Syndrome & Self-Doubt—Feeling like they’re not good enough or capable of success.
How Young Adults Feel When They're Struggling
- ❌ “I don’t know what I’m doing with my life.”
- ❌ “Everyone else seems to have it together, but I’m lost.”
- ❌ “I’m so overwhelmed—how do people manage everything?”
- ❌ “Why do I feel like I’m behind in life compared to my friends?”
This emotional turbulence can lead to unhealthy coping mechanisms, from self-isolation to substance use, impulsive decisions, or simply feeling stuck and unmotivated.

Our school has benefited greatly from the opportunity to connect our students and families with the Prepare-U curriculum.

I saw the life-saving benefit of Prepare U within our community. Many of the school districts and communities had suffered from multiple student and teacher suicides prior to being introduced to Prepare U. Their communities were devastated! Once Prepare-U was implemented within these communities, ZERO student suicides occurred and that fact remains to this day!

Our mission from day one is to move the needle in mental health on a personal level and global scale, Prepare U has been the cornerstone of that mission. Our partners and alliances with international leaders has reinforced that we have been true to our mission since the beginning.

We want to not only give to students... but we want to give parents the keys and the tools, this is the power of Prepare U.

Offering Prepare U to my students was the most meaningful thing I have done in my over 25-year career in education.

There is no doubt this curriculum has saved lives.

Prepare U has helped me to become a better coach and father.
