13 Crucial Questions To Do With Child Welfare





 




There are 13 crucial questions that need to be considered when deciding anything to do with child welfare. When it comes to abortion, there are committees, groups, studies, and court cases that go all the way up to the Supreme Court. But what about child welfare itself? It is time that Congress create a committee to investigate what is happening to our children paid for by our tax dollars. Other countries are already doing this. 


Children’s social care is the system of support that children, young people and their families receive from their local authorities when they need extra help. The purpose of the system is to support these groups by addressing any problems early, intervening decisively when there is likelihood of harm, and to provide care for those who need it. However, there are a number of factors that impact the operational effectiveness of the overall social care system. Hence, there should be an inquiry in order to consider this topic in more detail. 


The inquiry will examine a wide range of issues. These include system demand, key drivers for the increase in local authority spending, profiteering by private firms who provide services, the rise in families and children with complex needs and how these are met, shortages in foster carers, the effectiveness of residential care placements and the impact of unregistered illegal children’s homes. The inquiry will also look at how the system is regulated and outcomes for care-experienced children.


In general, the following questions should be considered:


1. How has demand for children’s social care changed in recent years? How is it expected to change going forwards?

2. What are the key drivers of rising local authority spending on children’s social care?

3. To what extent is the supply of residential placements meeting the needs of, and delivering good outcomes for, care-experienced children?

4. What are the barriers to getting more suitable residential placements in the areas where they’re needed?

5. What are the strengths and limitations of regional commissioning of residential care placements?

6. To what extent is the foster care system meeting the needs of, and delivering good outcomes for, care-experienced children?

7. What are the key factors contributing to shortages of foster carers?

8. How effectively are kinship carers being supported?

9. What are the key challenges facing the children’s social care workforce? What impacts are these challenges having on care-experienced children?

10. What are the key factors contributing to the continued use of unregistered children’s homes? What risks do these settings potentially present to care-experienced children?

11. How effectively are system partners – including local authorities, private providers, responding to the continued use of unregistered children’s homes? What should they be doing differently?

12. How effectively is regulating and inspecting the children’s social care sector, particularly in relation to (a) tackling the use of unregistered settings, (b) registering new children’s homes and (b) collecting and publishing data on the sector?

13. What factors have the greatest impact on outcomes for care-experienced children?

Go ahead, trash me for seeking facts and truths instead of settling for propaganda fed by Qatar.

Caught Between Two Worlds

Image
I was just an infant when I was taken from my homeland of Canada’s First Nations. “Now I live as a foreigner to my people. The pain that is often spoken of that comes with such separation and loss is only dwarfed by the pain of being taken from the life you were born into and forced to live an alternate reality that shouldn’t exist.  This is a perspective not brought up enough. However, it explains the common feeling of being caught between “two worlds” shared by many who are victims of this industry. The knowledge of the industry, its propaganda and the global child supply market along with my own first hand experience makes me a formidable threat to this trafficking scheme. It’s been my steadfast pursuit of the truth that has empowered me to raise my voice despite worldwide opposition. . . . From childhood innocence, to truth in adulthood, I have learned of horrifying atrocities committed in the name of “adoption” or rather the act of taking someone else’s child to own them. The ...

Sundown Towns

Image
Jewish lives don't belong in Sundown Towns. Have you ever felt that being who you are made your town unsafe? Do you feel unsafe? I do feel that way sometimes. My last name sounds German and Jewish, and I worry about becoming the target of a hate crime. Growing up, I learned that many celebrities, business owners, and working people had to change their names to avoid discrimination in order to    succeed. This was the reality in America, a country that couldn't live up to its own ideals. I was bullied for my Jewish-sounding last name and still bear the scars. Despite this, I was a scrappy kid. I've considered changing my name from the trafficked one I was given to my birth name, but I haven't done it yet. It might be risky, but as a Mi’kmaq, I refuse to give in to bullies and fear. I've never backed down before, and I won't start now. Some might call it arrogance or recklessness, but it's just me being Mi’kmaw, stubborn and proud. Moreover, my birth name does...

Aussie’s Response To Trump

Image
  “AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…” Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share. This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating: “Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight. A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive. A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy. A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages. You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything. They’re simply too poor to afford bail. Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only d...
