Looking forward to seeing our paper in this special edition. It has been accepted and is in the final stages and as soon as it is available online, we will share it with you. The first paper from the study to harness the power of our longitudinal data over 3 waves.

Study of children in care in Wales finds children moved 9 times on average and saw 7 different social workers.
1 in 3 had been sexually abused at some point in their lives. Residential care should be considered more rather than being seen as a last resort.

New book on leaving care and the transition to adulthood! Many interesting perspectives and theoretical contributions, and useful input on promising practices. My contribution is a chapter where we have analysed excisting research and pointed at future research needs.#leavingcare
