BC lags behind US, UK on extended foster care
One British lobby group is schooling the rest of the world on how to make change, in a hurry.
The Don't Move Me campaign, organized by The Fostering Network, makes the case that ending care at 16 or 18 (depending on the local council) hurts vulnerable youth. The campaign aims to allow all youth to stay in their foster care placements, without being moved, until they're 21 -- if they choose to.
