FREE. A monthly journal club for mental health professionals. The gap between dependent adolescence and independent adulthood seems to be getting wider - and more and more clients in mental health settings seem to be stuck at the transition. This online one-hour journal club selects and discusses a single short-ish article from the online open-access published literature on the subject of failure to launch, NEET (Not in Education Employment or Training), and hikikomori, with the aim of expanding awareness of the nature and therapy for this increasingly common life challenge. There is no need to attend regularly. Email me for the zoom link. Time is 11 am Pacific (Vancouver) time, 2 pm Eastern.

This time: Population Europe (2014). Failure to Launch: Economic crisis leads to demographic crisis for the young. Population & Policy Compact, 6. https://population-europe.eu/files/documents/pb_youth_vulnerability_final_web.pdf
