Synopsis

Kinship care is now emerging as a fast-growing alternative to other forms of substitute care. How can social workers adjust their approach to kinship care? Can assessments be tailored to meet different needs? How can workers enable kinship carers to explore all the options open to them? How can we work together with family and friends in the firm belief that it is best for children to remain one of the family?

This guide will help workers to recognise the challenges of kinship care and be better prepared to support kinship placements. It looks at some of the fundamental positive steps that workers can take to ensure that kinship care is as successful as possible for the children and carers involved.

This user-friendly guide contains expert advice for all workers involved with moving children on to other adoptive placements, or other forms of permanency. Both social workers new to this area of work, as well as established practitioners, will benefit from the practical advice on settling children into stable, enduring and permanent families.
