Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs
Foster Care Services: Discussion
10:00 am
Ms Fidelma Guinan:
Our understanding of the new policy is that everyone leaving residential care will automatically be entitled to an aftercare worker but that those leaving foster care will not. They will have access to drop-in centres around the country in every area where they can access duty aftercare workers. To our knowledge, however, they will not all be allocated aftercare workers.
