Family Wanted - Demi's Story: A Different Kind of Adoption

Series exploring adoption and foster-caring. Children in care often have several foster care placements before they are adopted and this causes further trauma and uncertainty for them. A handful of adoption agencies offer an alternative called concurrent planning. The idea is simple - when a child comes into care they are fostered by carers who will go on to adopt them if they cannot return home. Family Wanted follows the work of one such agency, and explores how this special kind of adoption impacts on the birth parents, carers and children.
