The people making a difference: the woman who created a community for fellow adult adoptees

The Guardian

2022

In 2013 when Claire Moruzzi began thinking about here experiences as an adoptee, she found there was little in the way of helpful resources.

In response, Moruzzi set up a website, How to be Adopted, which acts as both a community for adoptees and a place where tips and other information is shared.

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
