We find loving homes for children and young people. Foster Care Solutions recognise that the children and young people it is asked to provide placements for will have experienced trauma in their lives, either through neglect, physical injury, emotional, physical and/or sexual abuse. It also acknowledges that these young people are often overwhelmed by these events and, unable to find appropriate w
ays of dealing with them, will inevitably present a wide range of behaviours. At Foster Care Solutions we acknowledge that, along with these more challenging behaviours, every young person will also have acquired many skills and strengths which have enabled them to survive their experiences thus far. Whilst we do not believe that it is the child’s responsibility to solve the problem, it is our aim to assist them in building on these strengths and skills to find acceptable solutions to their own particular circumstances. Therefore, at Foster Care Solutions we aim to equip foster carers with the appropriate skills and training to work with the child in such a way that it facilitates joint growth and solutions which will eventually enable young people to return home successfully, move on to a more permanent placement, or achieve independent living; whichever is in accordance with their Care Plan.
