In The Neglected Transition, Monique B. Mitchell explores children's experiences of loss and ambiguity as they transition into foster care, as well as the questions they ask during this critical life transition. By joining children on this courageous and meaningful journey, readers will discover an illuminating, inspirational path of healing.
On average, a quarter of a million children in the United States enter foster care every year. Most of these children are placed in non-kinship homes; that is, with people who are complete strangers. In The Neglected Transition, child welfare researcher Monique B. Mitchell explores children''s experiences of loss and ambiguity as they transition into foster care, as well as the questions children ask during this critical life transition. Specifically, the author uses child-centered research, practical examples, and healing suggestions to create a foundation from which a relational home can be built. Drawing from the compelling stories of children, Mitchell invites readers to join children on their journey as they transition into the foster care system and courageously share their experiences of loss, ambiguity, fear, and hope.
