Young people transitioning from life in care to adulthood - what supports are available?

from Live95 Limerick Today Podcasts

Tusla hosted its first ever aftercare conference focusing on the supports available to those leaving care and stepping into adulthood. For many, that transition can be challenging, but Tusla says early planning and consistent aftercare can make a real difference. Jacqueline Smyth, National Lead for Foster Care with Tusla, and West Limerick woman Shauna Kelly, a care-experienced young adult who’s now studying for a Master’s in Social Work and played a key role in organising the conference, both spoke on Limerick Today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
