This important book offers unique insight into the experience of foster youths from twenty-three countries around the world. It provides a survey of literature reporting the experiences of youth in care, addressing a wide range of key topics in this multidisciplinary field, and presenting the views and perceptions of these young people. Including a meta-analysis on contact with birth parents, it examines youths’ experiences of the foster care system; contact and relationships; caregiving and relationships with caregivers; placements; and emotional well-being. These five core sections embrace a wide range of crucial topics including young people’s involvement in decisions about themselves; interactions with social workers, birth families, foster families, peers, and friends; the benefits and challenges of foster care; the stigma attached to being in care; mental health and belonging and a developing sense of self. This essential volume is for students and scholars of child and adolescent development, social work, education, sociology, and public health. Illustrated with quotes from former foster youth and including research-based recommendations on policy and practice, it is also for professional social workers, psychologists, child advocates, children’s therapists, children’s attorneys, and youth workers.
