Faith to Action Podcast Series

Faith to Action

This series of podcasts from Faith to Action Initiative features the audio from past Faith to Action webinars, including a webinar on The Continuum of Care. "The Continuum of Care" is the audio version of Webinar 2 for on-the-go learners. This podcast looks at the range of alternative care for children who have been separated from parental care and emphasizes family care. Alternative care includes: kinship care, foster care, adoption, and formal residential care such as temporary rehabilitative care and small group homes. Large-scale institutional care is not recommended. This podcast explores the importance of transitioning children to family care through reunification or alternative family care whenever possible. Key resources used and discussed in this podcast draw from A Continuum of Care for Orphans and Vulnerable Children and Children, Orphanages, and Families: A Summary of Research to Help Guide Faith-Based Action.
