Eleanor Roosevelt

Short History of (Roosevelt)

2024

In this podcast, Eleanor Roosevelt’s childhood – including in kinship care and boarding school in England - is reviewed.
Although Eleanor Roosevelt was born into privilege, she became an activist for social justice, a major theme discussed in this Short History.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
