The Independent Care Review frequently heard about the close link between poverty and the ‘care system’.

There is clear evidence that families driven into poverty are far more likely to have their children removed.

[Dr. Nathan Currie, LCSW @AskDoctorNate]

I bought myself a house, after 4 months of work (and waiting out my apt lease) I moved in, slept my 1st night in it. When I was a boy in foster care I used to think before sleep, “someday I’ll have my very own house and nobody will tell me I have to leave”. Now that is true. 🏡
