Über die Quelle
Adoption & Fostering is a quarterly peer reviewed journal which has been at the cutting edge of debate on childcare issues for over 50 years. It is the only UK journal dedicated to adoption and fostering issues, providing an international forum for a wide range of professionals: academics and practitioners in social work, psychology, law, medicine, education, training and caring for children and young people.
As the official journal of the CoramBAAF Adoption & Fostering Academy, the UK’s leading adoption and fostering charity, the journal supports CoramBAAF’s aims of promoting the highest standards of practice in adoption, fostering and childcare services, to increase public understanding of the issues and to provide an independent voice for children and families, disseminating new research and practice developments, informing and influencing policy-makers, all those responsible for children and young people, and public opinion at large.
In addition to informative and thought provoking articles from around the world, Adoption & Fostering offers regular legal notes and health notes prepared by dedicated practitioners and professionals concerned with the welfare of looked after children and young people in the UK.
Legal notes
Each issue of the journal features around 12 pages of legal notes prepared by experts in England & Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. These include commentary on specific cases and for Scotland, recent developments and updates in the law.
Health notes
Regular health notes prepared by doctors around the UK cover a range of topics, from evaluating projects and services to reporting on conferences held by the CoramBAAF Health Group.
