Supporting a child with a parent or relative in Prison
Children who have a parent in prison can feel isolated and ashamed – and most feel unable to talk about it because they’re scared of being bullied. These children are often left in the shadows, their needs forgotten, and this can have devastating impact on the children.
· How are children affected by having a relative in prison?
· Signs and indicators that a young person is being affected by a relative being in prison
· How can Foster carers support children with relatives in prison?
· Additional support for Foster carers from other agencies.
