Supporting Adult Care-Leavers : International Good Practice, Hardback Book

Supporting Adult Care-Leavers : International Good Practice Hardback

Hardback

Description

Growing up in care is not just a part of childhood, but can have ongoing impacts across a person’s life.

Various inquiries have revealed accounts of abuse and neglect, and a fracturing of family relationships. Organised thematically to allow comparison of different initiatives, this book considers the range of responses to adult care leavers in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand and the UK.

Initiatives examined include public inquiries, symbolic acknowledgements, redress schemes, specialist support services, access to personal records and family reunification programs. Featuring detailed case studies and examples of good practice, this is an excellent international source book for practitioners and policy makers in social work and social care.
