Case Study D - Safe Steps

Gavin had been in and out of foster care for over four years. Some of the placements were good ones, and Gavin had positive memories of them. Some of them were less good. They all however had something in common; they had disrupted after a few weeks or months, primarily because of Gavin’s behaviour and his desire to be back with his mother.
