Facilitating adoptions from care
£14.95
This fascinating collection examines child welfare research, permanency and practice across England, the US and Canada, three countries which have established permanency as a priority for children in care who are unable to return home.
It explores how different countries are using innovative practices to meet children’s needs. The compendium identifies 22 practices that have shown promise as a means to permanency, primarily through adoption or guardianship, including organisational practices, court practices, recruitment and retention of families, pre-adoptive casework procedures, and supporting and preserving adoptive families.
This review will expand the knowledge and perspectives of adoption professionals, and introduces effective, tried and tested practices that will help to achieve permanency for more waiting children.
This book is for social work practitioners, managers and policy makers working in both adoption and fostering.
