Switched at Birth

2011

Switched at Birth is a TV series starring Katie Leclerc, Vanessa Marano, and Constance Marie. Two teenage girls' lives are turned upside down when they find out they were switched at birth. An additional CEP character is Ty or Tyler Mendosa, who grew up in kinship care with his mother.

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
