The UpEND Podcast

The UpEND Podcast

2023

UpEND is a movement by activists in the United States to abolish the existing child welfare system, which they call he ‘family policing system’.


There is now an UpEND podcast available and in the first episode Alan Dettlaff explains the need for abolition rather than reform.

Trauma warning: This archive contains material relating to care experience including references to abuse, neglect, sexual violence, and institutional harm.

 

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
