Supporting each other: An international literature review on peer contact between foster carers
This review of the international research on peer contact between foster carers was undertaken in order to identify the ways in which foster carers come together, the forms of support and learning that this provides and the potential impact on outcomes. The main review questions were:
⢠What is the nature of peer contact between foster carers and what does it provide?
⢠How far does peer contact improve outcomes for carers, children and placements?
⢠What are the interventions that increase contact between carers and could thereby potentially improve outcomes?
