  1. Plan ahead: Encourage young adults to plan ahead and to think about how they will manage the transition, including logistics such as travel, housing, and finances.
  2. Seek support: Encourage young adults to seek out support from family, friends, and community networks to help with the transition.
  3. Stay open-minded: Encourage young adults to stay open-minded and flexible in their approach, as unexpected challenges and opportunities may arise.
  4. Maintain connections: Encourage young adults to maintain connections with their home community and culture, while also building new connections in their new environment.
  5. Embrace the experience: Encourage young adults to embrace the experience and to be open to learning and growth opportunities that arise during this time.
