Newly released analysis of census data shows that kinship carers are less likely to be employed, and kinship families have higher levels of deprivation than parental households. Our new report, out next week to coincide with #KinshipCareWeek, looks at how support for kinship families varies, both across local areas and by type of kinship care arrangement. Foundations is committed to finding out what works to support kinship families, so that local areas can consistently offer the types of support that are most likely to improve outcomes for children. So that children and young people are supported by their families to develop and thrive, be safe in their homes, and stay safely with their families as much as possible. #KinshipCare #ChildrensSocialCare
