Sorted and Supported: Rights and Entitlements of Care Leavers

Learning from Research: RCT Model of creative life story work for LAC
Life Story Work (LSW) is the process of helping people to remember and make sense of their early lives. It can help children who have been separated from their birth family to understand their past, and come to terms with the present circumstances and what has happened to them along the way. This session discusses the results and implications of recent research on the topic.
