Children in need of care.
Children Affected by Poverty and Social Exclusion
Poverty and social marginalization are significant motivators for children being placed in alternative care worldwide. Families give up their children because they cannot care for them or believe it is the best way to provide them with essential amenities such as education and health care. Girls, children with disabilities, ethnic minorities, children with HIV/AIDS, and children born out of marriage make up a disproportionate percentage of children abandoned into alternative care due to discrimination and cultural taboos. Inadequate alternative care contributes to a vicious cycle of poverty and inequality. Children frequently wind up in institutional care in many nations due to a lack of family-based alternative care choices. Kids are already disadvantaged by poverty or shame, and as they grow up isolated from their families and communities, they risk being even more alienated from society. In the worst-case scenario, they are subjected to neglect, aggression, and abuse due to poor or hazardous care standards. When young people leave institutional care, they may struggle to reintegrate into their communities, where they may experience high rates of homelessness, unemployment, chronic poverty, despair, and even suicide. More political and financial commitment is required to address the poverty and social marginalization that pushes families to abandon their children. This encompasses a broad range of actions to battle poverty, prejudice, and stigma, to change attitudes regarding single motherhood and handicap, and to implement social policies that promote family empowerment and parenting skills. Greater emphasis must also be placed on providing high-quality family-based care choices for girls and boys who require alternative families, such as foster care and adoption. This section's materials investigate the link between poverty, social isolation, and the placement of children in alternative care.
