A Hidden Intersectionality: Care Experience, Disability

Lys Eden; Jamie Crabb

2021

"Care Experienced as an identity is becoming increasingly embraced by a growing community. This community has lived experience of being looked after with support of state intervention in a range of settings such as foster, residential, kinship care and adoption. In this blog, 2 Care Experienced People, Lys Eden and Jamie Crabb, talk about their lived experience of the intersection of care experience, disability and neurodiversity."

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.
