Children’s charity Coram evaluated the Restorative Parenting Training (RPT) programme and mentoring scheme ran by Cornerstone – a social enterprise working to improve the life chances of children in the care system.
The findings are included in a new report, published ahead of Big Adoption Day tomorrow (29 March).
As part of the intiative, which is organised by the Consortium of Voluntary Adoption Agencies in England, a number of events for prospective adopters will take place across the country. Coram is hosting free information events at its offices in London, Cambridge, and Shepshed, near Loughborough.
The Restorative Parenting Training (RPT) programme is a course and webinar programme which teaches adopters, either pre-or post placement, about parenting techniques and attachment theory. Cornerstone’s mentoring scheme provides adopters with additional support and advice about the process of becoming or being an adoptive parent from a volunteer adopter.
