"I have a sense of permanency. The flat's mine, I can redecorate, I can plan for my future, I can get a job and look forward to things. Hopefully, one day, I can get a dog."
#HousingFirst supports people to look forward - with agency, strengths, goals, aspirations.
And dogs ๐ถ

Strong, inspirational voices of some of our Aberdeenshire care experienced young people. We need to stop, listen, reflect and act. What part do we play in reducing stigma? What can we do differently? How do we use language? How do we see the child first? #keepthepromise
"Raising awareness of the fact that stigma surrounds children and young people in care is the first step in tackling it."
