Support needs of newly formed adoptive families

Sarah Meakins from Cardiff University and her colleagues have recently published a paper in Adoption and Fostering on findings from the Wales Adoption Study.  This paper will be of particular interest to practitioners in family placement and adoptive parents and in addition to other carers offering permanence to children.  The paper explores the early support needs of newly formed adoptive families and is entitled “The support needs and experiences of newly formed adoptive families; finding from the Wales Adoption Study”.   An abstract can be accessed by clicking here.
