Adoption for looked after children: messages from research eBook only

The Adoption Research Initiative was a Government-funded programme to explore the effects of the Adoption and Children Act 2002. Seven large and complex studies considered a range of areas, including adoption, disruption, permanent fostering, and matching practices. This summary brings together and analyses the results of all seven studies. 

Four themes emerged from the studies: permanence, finding a family, adoption support, and contact. The results of the studies, and analysis by this report, sum up the knowledge gained by the research. 

This summary is a valuable resource for all those involved in adoption and fostering - practitioners, managers and policy makers.
