Poverty-proofing for families in or on the edges of care
Created: 25/08/2023
"Poverty-proofing for families in or on the edges of care" is a new report by One Parent Families Scotland, commissioned by The Promise Scotland.
This report is based on research by One Parent Families Scotland with Child Poverty Action Group. It explores what happens to family finances when a child enters the care system in Scotland and this how affects family reunification. The report is based on interviews with practitioners and parents who have come into contact with the care system. It contains series of short-term and long-term recommendations to mitigate against the negative consequences for families when a child is taken into care.
