    In recent years, the study of family dynamics has gained particular relevance due to its close relationship with the comprehensive development of adolescents, especially in contexts of social vulnerability. Adolescence, understood as a stage of profound emotional and social changes, requires a family environment that provides clear communication, stable affection, and guiding authority. When these conditions are absent, challenges arise that may affect the construction of a life project, a fundamental process through which young people define goals, aspirations, and a sense of direction toward the future.The present study was conducted with the purpose of determining the influence of family dynamics on the construction of the life project of adolescents participating in the Luz de Vida Project. The sample consisted of 120 adolescents aged between 14 and 21 years. A survey instrument aligned with a quantitative research approach was applied to assess the dimensions of communication, affectivity, and authority, as well as the components of the life project, including goals, achievements, and motivation. The results indicate that most adolescents perceive a relatively functional family dynamic, particularly in terms of expressions of affection and openness to communication and dialogue. However, cases were also identified in which authority is exercised inconsistently or with limited guidance, which affects some adolescents’ ability to define clear goals, envision their long-term future, or maintain consistent motivation in their personal plans. A key finding of the study is that adolescents who experience greater emotional support and fluid communication within the family tend to cope better and project themselves more positively, establishing stronger foundations for their lives over the next ten years without generating significant conflicts. It is concluded that family dynamics have a significant influence on the construction of adolescents’ life projects. Adolescents raised in cohesive family environments show greater clarity regarding their academic, occupational, and personal aspirations, whereas those facing difficulties within family relationships encounter greater challenges in planning their future. These findings highlight the need to strengthen family bonds and promote psychosocial support strategies that contribute to a healthy transition into adulthood.
