Sorry - pressed wrong button!I am thinking how useful it would be at this time to have Adoption workers involved with us, instead of Child Care Access.I would like there to be a Permanancy Placement Team; for those of us who have Residence/Special Guardianship Orders, and draw this into the Post Adoption Support.It seems silly to me to have Orders for children/young people who have been placed through twin tracking in homes which are permanent yet not adoptive.Support for children who have had a lot of trauma in their lives, yet are not adopted, is lacking - this happens at schools, through group support and through access to grants/funding/special schemes.There is no designated school liaison worker, no officially run groups through the Social Services, and no cohesive central support.Johanna

sad to say it's also lacking for children who've had trauma/neglect and been adopted before latest adoption actl
