Abstract

<p>According to Miyamoto (2012, 2015), the transition to adulthood presents unique challenges for young people. During the industrialization era, there was a single, sequential, and continuous transition route from childhood to adulthood, but since the late 1990s, the transition period has become longer and more complex, and transition patterns have become more individualized, diverse, and fluid. The purpose of this study is to investigate the meaning and potential of a place to support young people who are hesitating in the process of transitioning to adulthood through a survey of the actual situation of young people who gather at Change Makers' College (hereinafter referred to as "CMC"). The survey revealed the following four meanings of CMC: "It is an environment where one is forced to confront oneself and others," "Awareness of one's own way of life is born," "One always feels connected to others," and "Life satisfaction is improved." As future issues, it is necessary to continue to investigate whether CMC can be an effective tool for all types of young people, whether they have achieved social independence in the real world after participating in CMC, and what kind of efforts on the part of the program operators have produced these results.</p>
