About this handbook
Change can bring up feelings of loss and rejection for children in care. This handbook explains why placement stability matters, why children sometimes have to move, and how foster carers and their families can help a move go well. It also covers the move to adulthood, and the part foster carers can keep playing in a young person's life after 18.
