This webinar is the seventh in the Transforming Children's Care Webinar Series. Foster carers can play a crucial role in providing children in need of alternative care with safety, protection and stability in a family-based setting whilst efforts are made to address challenges that have led to child-family separation or to identify a more permanent alternative care solution for children who cannot be reintegrated within their families. With…

In this video, Sreyna and Chenda, two practitioners from Hagar Cambodia, discuss their learning regarding the impact of the care setting on child rehabilitation. By comparing the differences observed in the rehabilitation process for children supported in Hagar’s family-based care versus in their shelters, Sreyna and Chenda outline the rationale for Hagar’s decision to close their shelters and expand their family-based care and community rehabilitation programs. Sreyna and Chenda further discuss the difference between employing an individual versus ecological and family systems approach to…
Reintegrating children out of residential care settings back into community and family can be a challenging process that requires strong buy-in from multiple stakeholders. Failure to secure buy-in and clearly communicate the reasons for reintegration, as well as the process, can cause numerous issues that can ultimately affect the outcomes for the child. Securing buy-in, however, is far more complex than simply discussing what is in the best interests of the child. It requires social workers or technical staff to first understand the range of motivations and personal concerns that can differ…
A key element to effectively supporting children in foster care is the provision of adequate social support to caregivers. Where this support is not forthcoming or timely, problems experienced by foster families can escalate and impact the quality of care for children and/or lead to placement instability and breakdown. Providing sufficient social support on a one-to-one basis can be costly and place high demands on social workers. This is exacerbated in situations where social workers must travel long distances to meet with foster families.
