The Trust for the Study of Adolescence (TSA) aims to help to improve the lives of young people and families. They believe that there is a lack of knowledge and understanding about adolescence and young adulthood. They are trying to close this gap through:
- Research
- Training for professionals and parents
- Projects that develop professional practice
- Influencing policy makers, service providers and public opinion
- Publications for parents, professionals and young people
They concentrate on breaking new ground, and try to avoid duplicating what others are doing. Currently their main areas of work are:
- Health
- Emotional well-being
- Parenting and family life
- Communication
- Social action
- Youth justice
TSA seeks to work in a respectful way that promotes equality and values the diversity of young people and adults.
TSA is engaged in research, training and professional development and publications. A wide range of publications is available, some are geared towards training, some for parents and some for teenagers. Contact TSA for a publication list and conference programme, or visit the website, which includes a listing. Topic areas include the following:
