Voices of Foster Families in Ireland

Ireland’s new ‘My Fostering Journey’ program puts kids already living with foster siblings front and center, giving their voices the spotlight in a revamped initiative backed by Tusla and the Irish Foster Care Association. Designed to align with the National Fostering Strategy, it tackles trauma, culture, and online safety while honoring the 88% of foster kids currently living with foster families. Launched with over 100 attendees—including 50 young foster voices—the guide was co-created by the kids themselves, ensuring real-life experiences shape how foster families navigate life’s unexpected moments.
