First published in 1999, this work draws together a multi-national collection of papers, and aims to stimulate the development of policy and practice in this often neglected area. It aims to offer examples of good social work practice, informed by relevant theoretical insights; to give a voice to kinship foster carers and young people so that practice can be informed by an understanding of their experience; to share the results of current research; to highlight issues for policy makers; and to place the issues in the wider international context of developing social policy, ideology and social change. There are contributions from the UK, Poland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, the US and New Zealand.

Industry Reviews

'I recommend all those who are struggling with providing stability for looked-after children, or who are just interested in the subject, to take the time to learn from the reflections and practical experiences that make this book an excellent read.' Community Care '...fills a much needed gap...an easy read, written clearly and directly...this book should do much to move kinship care higher on the policy and practice agenda.' European Journal of Social Work '...a valuable contribution to the literature on the placement of children.' British Journal of Social Work '...should be recommended to childcare practitioners, managers, educators and social work students who are genuinely committed to improving the foster care experiences of looked after? children.' Social Work Education
