Community Care Foster Care Conference
FosterCare UK sponsored the latest Community Care conference: An evidence-based approach to supporting foster carers this week in London.
The conference provided an opportunity for care agencies and Local Authorities to discuss and debate a wide range of topics, including:
- Clarify the meaning of delegated authority in the Foster Carers’ Charter: Where should flexibility end or become inappropriate?
- Discover how to manage high-risk behaviours in children aged 3-17: Evidence-based approaches to support both the foster child and foster carers
- Identify how to promote efficiencies in foster carer recruitment
- Gain insight into how to support foster carers who receive allegations of abuse
- Hear practical strategies to manage compassion fatigue in foster carers and the wider looked-after children workforce
