Councils are referring more children from residential to fostercare, independent fostering agencies (IFAs) have reported. Children making significant progress in residential care due to effective therapeutic interventions, making them ready and willing to move to a family-like setting.
It took the intervention of Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel to undo some of the damage done to the children at the center of this case. His mother consulted experts and followed their advice to allow him to express himself and not do anything to shame or stigmatize him. The child is now 11 and currently identifies as male.)
Child Welfare Specialist : Social workers in this role focus on the safety and well-being of children, often within the context of child protective services or fostercare systems. They involve clients in decision-making processes and encourage them to actively participate in setting goals and developing intervention plans.

Child Au is now being cared for by foster parents and, while the review said she was making progress, it added that she needed specialist intervention to deal with the impact of her early experiences. Fluctuating’ interventions meant neglect and abuse of girl ‘kicked across room’ was never tackled. Failure to refer.
