What is the Defining Decade for Adulthood?
Meg Jay, Assistant Clinical Professor, U.Va. Curry School of Education
Meg Jay, Clinical Psychologist in the Curry School of Education specializes in young adult development. She will argue that those in their twenties have been caught in a swirl of hype and misinformation, much of which has trivialized what is actually the most defining decade of adulthood. Jay will share her research and what psychologists, sociologists, neurologists, human resources executives and reproductive specialists know about the unique power of the twentysomething years and how they shape lives. This knowledge is vitally important to parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and bosses in order to understand adulthood’s defining decade and how it impacts the individual’s life and those around them.
