If I want to say they are young. Would it be Ellas son jovenes? Or would it just be joven?

Ellas son jovenes. They (Those girls) are young. The adjective needs to agree with the subject. The subject is plural and feminine so the adjective has to be plural and feminine. Joven is both masculine and feminine though. You just need to make it plural.

Keep it plural.
Los jovenes means young people, not just teenagers. Once you get old enough to call people at universities "college kids", you view the term young people differently.

Hola xoquincyxo,
'Ellas son jóvenes'
(Notice the accent mark on the 'o').
'JOVEN' is the singular form (and it doesn't have an accent mark).

Ellas son jóvenes. The adjective must agree with the
noun it modifies.
