Short term placements

Short term placements at Key Assets Fostering can last for several days, weeks or months. The aim of a short term fostering placement is to find a safe and suitable home for a child or youth temporarily.

The foster care will often last until the child is ready to be reunited with their birth family. Alternatively, a young person may be approaching the age of independence or working towards adoption as part of permanence planning.
