Academic publisher SAGE and the British Association for Adoption & Fostering (BAAF) have announced a new agreement to publish BAAF’s journal, Adoption & Fostering, from 2013. The journal is edited by Roger Bullock, Fellow, Centre for Social Policy, The Social Research Unit at Dartington, UK.
Published quarterly, Adoption & Fostering has been at the cutting edge of debate on childcare issues for over 50 years. It claims to be the only UK journal dedicated to adoption and fostering issues, providing an international forum for academics and practitioners in social work, psychology, law, medicine, training, and caring.
As the official journal of BAAF, the UK’s leading adoption and fostering membership association, the journal supports BAAF’s aims of promoting the highest standards of practice in adoption, fostering and childcare services to increase public understanding of the issues and to act as an independent voice for children, informing and influencing policy-makers, all those responsible for children and young people and public opinion at large.
The first SAGE issue will publish in Spring 2013, available from the SAGE Journals platform.
