This new book is aimed at fostering agencies and social workers who want to learn how to support and retain foster carers. Its 12 chapters cover stories from foster carers about what it is like to look after children with difficulties ranging from severe disability and neglect to HIV and foetal alcohol syndrome. The carers talk about the strategies they have used to deal with these problems, and the rewards fostering can offer.
