Looking after infant mental health: a case for change

Looking after infant mental health: a case for change This report argues that our approach to the mental health needs of infants and children in care requires rethinking. The report sets out a number of solutions to increase the range and amount of supportive services for both foster carers and birth parents to make sure babies and young children in care have stable and loving placements, undoing the neural damage caused by abuse and neglect in their early lives. The report is accompanied by a wide range of evidence from research and practice, from the UK and internationally. NSPCC
