Show Notes

There are many reasons why some children are not able to remain living with their birth families. In Australia, this is referred to as out-of-home care. While it’s intended to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children, out-of-home-care can also come with its own set of challenges. In this podcast we talk with Meryl Klimczack, who has over 20 years’ experience as a foster mum.
