The Dept of Education is consulting about adoption & kinship care, in particular access to the adoption support fund. Deadline Tuesday 5 May.

Our evidence will say end all forced adoptions, abolish “foster to adopt” and give all kinship carers the same money and resources as foster carers. STOP taking children from loving mums who just need support, NOT separation.

Anyone interested, including adoptees, birth families and kinship carers can respond.
