TACT Fostering & Adoption Manifesto for Children in Care

TACT sets out reforms of the care system that should be priority for the incoming government in this Manifesto.

The publication was prepared in consultation with social workers, foster carers, adopters and young people in the care system.

The manifesto calls for a series of measures including improved participation in decision making, better advocacy, effective mental health services, stability in foster placements, better educational support, improved family reunification processes, recognition of the educational needs of adopted children, improved post-adoption support services, and recognition of the needs of looked-after children in the criminal justice system.
