Too many foster parents with criminal records

Too many foster parents with criminal records

From 2 June until 14 November 2008, the Supreme Chamber of Control (NIK) monitored 40 family aid institutions: 26 district family aid centres and 14 urban family aid centres. Only seven were thought to attain the required level of quality in Poland.

According to NIK, family courts frequently appoint people with criminal records for the role of foster parents. Such a situation occurred in 70 per cent of family aid centres.
