t\,&rsquo\; adolescence is a time of preparation and transition. Youth a
re figuring out what they need from their adolescent years and from scho
ols to be prepared for adulthood. In addition to academic preparation\,
youth need a broad set of skills and dispositions to navigate a complex
and global economy. Whereas it is important to help youth envision thems
elves in careers and in college\, focusing on college and careers as out
comes often misses the importance of helping youth hone their sense of p
urpose and develop the cognitive and analytical skills to make sense of
and navigate the job market. Professor Hill will present research on the
significance of these broader outcomes and the relational supports that
are associated with their development. As there are entrenched inequiti
es in access to high quality education\, to college\, and to the social
capital needed to navigate a successful transition to adulthood\, these
processes are examined in a series of studies on diverse samples. By exa
mining findings across samples from a range in economic and ethnic backg
rounds\, commonalities and divergences in goals and experiences will be
highlighted. Further\, as these studies are grounded in research-practic

Abstract: Even as youth often live ‘in the moment,&rsq
uo; adolescence is a time of preparation and transition. Youth are figur
ing out what they need from their adolescent years and from schools to b
e prepared for adulthood. In addition to academic preparation, youth nee
d a broad set of skills and dispositions to navigate a complex and globa
l economy. Whereas it is important to help youth envision themselves in
careers and in college, focusing on college and careers as outcomes ofte
n misses the importance of helping youth hone their sense of purpose and
develop the cognitive and analytical skills to make sense of and naviga
te the job market. Professor Hill will present research on the significa
nce of these broader outcomes and the relational supports that are assoc
iated with their development. As there are entrenched inequities in acce
ss to high quality education, to college, and to the social capital need
ed to navigate a successful transition to adulthood, these processes are
examined in a series of studies on diverse samples. By examining findin
gs across samples from a range in economic and ethnic backgrounds, commo
nalities and divergences in goals and experiences will be highlighted. F
urther, as these studies are grounded in research-practice partnerships,
the integration of findings across theory, policy and practice will be
emphasized.
