About this listen
To mark Kinship Care week 2025 Amanda is joined by Dr. Braden Clark, Founder and CEO of Relate Services and co-author of Family’s latest publication; Strengthening Kinship Care in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Kinship care is the most widely used form of alternative care globally. And can lead to better outcomes in health, education, and emotional well-being than other forms of alternative care, yet it is often under resourced and poorly supported.
Amanda and Braden discuss the limitations of current child protection systems, and highlights the urgent need for culturally inclusive, community-led solutions which reflect the lived experience of kinship carers and the children they care for.
