Welcome to the University of Transition!
Throughout our lives, many of us will face an array of changes, challenges and transitions. University of Transition aims to empower each of us who are facing or dealing with some of Life’s Transitions. Those transitions may include changes or challenges in Business Ownership, Housing, Health & Medical Care and Income/Asset Management along with Family and Marital Changes.
For many years, the traditional family was noted as a heterosexual couple (with a noted bread winner that held the same job for many years) in a long-term marriage who conceived children the old-fashioned way and maybe even lived in the same neighborhood through most of their lives or in a community surrounded by relatives. Evolving social norms and new technological advances over the past 40 years have challenged many of these traditional notions of family and communities into many forms of blended and extended families.
Many of those changes were created by:
- A dramatic increase in divorce and the creation of blended families
- Children born outside of marriage and the phenomenon of single mothers by choice
- An acceptance of sophisticated assisted reproductive technology and adoption
- Legalization of same-sex marriage and an increase in unmarried cohabiting couples
- Job opportunities for both sexes nationally and globally.
Extended beyond changing traditional norms, with each new generation there are new demands. As an example, raising a family vs. entering retirement could mean a range of transitions from handing down the business to a successor or selling the business outright to adding on or buying a business for added income.
Such as, our population is aging and the demand for services is growing. As we age, there could be other transitions related to Living and Aging in Place (or Aging by Choice). Those transitions could affect choices of Housing, Health and Medical Care as well as Income and Asset Management.
Knowing where to access the right resources or being prepared can mean avoiding a crisis or getting through a crisis. University of Transition would like to support those new demands or challenges with Educational Content and Resources alongside a Network of Advisors that can help plan ahead or give options during many of Life’s Transitions.
