Follow-up care after the end of full-time care for foster children

  • Partnerschaft und Familie

When a full-time foster care ends, the foster child can still be accompanied as a young adult.

  • Basic information

    If a foster relationship ends, follow-up or transitional care can take place for young adults. This can also be provided by the previous foster carers. Agreements on this are made in the assistance planning.

    When a foster child leaves a foster relationship, this is referred to as a "leaving care process". In Bremen, this process is accompanied by a specialist from PiB - Pflegekinder in Bremen gemeinnützigen GmbH.

    The goals of the aftercare process are, for example, the foster child's independence after reaching the age of majority or the success of a change to another form of youth welfare. It can also be a matter of enabling the return to the family of origin or accompanying an adoption.

    The professionals at PiB - Pflegekinder in Bremen gemeinnützigen GmbH accompany the foster children and the foster carers through reflective follow-up discussions, among other things.

    The counseling should take place within a reasonable period of time after the end of the assistance in a form that is understandable, comprehensible and perceptible to the young adults.

  • Procedure

    • The aftercare is agreed upon between PiB - Pflegekinder in Bremen gemeinnützige GmbH, the young adult and, if applicable, his or her legal guardian as part of the assistance planning.
