The Adoption and Fostering Podcast
Kids & Family:Parenting
We're re releasing the most listened to podcast of the year. In third place we have Fiona Wells.
In this webcast we speak to adopter, social worker and adult adoptee Feona Wells about the recent report Adoption Crisis The Jarring Reality of Adoption that she complied. It has been shared widely and lay’s out over 30 families’ experiences of adoption and the challenges that led up to and were part of disruption. It’s an emotive issue and the report raises serious concerns in terms of the system’s response to the adversity that many find themselves in.
There's a little swearing and we're aware that this is an emotive issue so go easy on yourselves.
You can read the report here.
You can contact Fiona on fionawells.patch@gmail.com
As always if you’ve experience of adoption, fostering or special guardianship from any perspective personal or professional and would like share that on the podcast please get in touch through the Facebook page or twitter or email us at AandFpodcast@gmail.com
