Life Skills Training Plan

The Why

Teens and young adults can benefit greatly from independent living skills training as they begin to transition from a more structured and supportive environment to living on their own. Here are some common reasons why a teen or young adult might need an independent living skills training plan:

• Preparation for adulthood: As teens and young adults approach adulthood, they need to acquire the skills necessary to live independently, including budgeting, cooking, cleaning, and self-care.

• Education and employment: Teens and young adults need to learn skills related to finding and maintaining employment or pursuing further education, such as time management, job searching, and study skills.

• Mental and physical health: Independent living skills training can help young adults learn how to take care of their mental and physical health, including developing healthy habits and coping strategies.

• Social skills: Young adults need to learn how to navigate social situations, develop relationships, and communicate effectively with others.

• Financial management: Teens and young adults need to learn how to manage their finances, including budgeting, paying bills, and saving money.

Overall, independent living skills training can help teens and young adults develop the necessary skills to live independently, pursue their goals, and become self-sufficient adults. By providing them with the tools they need to succeed, an independent living skills training plan can help set them up for a successful future.
