Protecting our children, Defending our rights – UK & US
Ending “child welfare’s” massive and heartless removal of children
from low-income mothers and families, often children of colour.
- LAUNCH of UK and US self-help guides for mothers and other primary caregivers struggling to protect our children from arbitrary state removal, forced adoptions, and violent fathers.
- LAUNCH of new research based on casework in the UK over the past four years: who is being targeted, the reasons given, impact on children, mothers’ personal experiences of going through sexist, racist, disablist and class biased family courts.
