What happened: A new initiative is helping young people transition from children's homes by providing ongoing support and care. This scheme aims to prevent the sudden loss of support that many face when leaving care.
Why it matters:
- It reduces the risk of homelessness and social isolation for care leavers.
- Young people leaving care receive continued emotional and practical support.
MNN Take: The scheme addresses a critical gap in support for care leavers, offering a more gradual and supportive transition to independence.
