International Review of Parent Advocacy in Child Welfare: Strengthening Children’s Care and Protection Through Parent Participation

Better Care Network and International Parent Advocacy Network 

Promoting parent and child participation is central to achieving children’s rights. This review of the literature and program documentation, prepared by David Tobis, Andy Bilson and Isuree Katugampala for the Better Care Network and IPAN, presents evidence on the role of parent advocacy in achieving better outcomes for children and their families in child welfare. It was written to encourage parents and their allies to work together to transform child welfare systems. This change can be achieved through parents with lived child welfare experience having an increased role and influence in the development of better child welfare systems.
