After completing a residential parenting assessment, it may be decided by the courts or local authority that a parent may require further assessment or support, and a fostering provision has been identified.
We are able to provide ongoing support to fostering placements by means of outreach – to provide continuity to the parent during their transition, and also to support the foster carer via training, and mentoring. Parent and child fostering will bring very different challenges and the carers may require support or guidance in managing the family.
