- W2034681059 abstract "The aim of this study is to evaluate the state of fostering and adoption services in Kwara State, which is the gateway between the northern and southern parts of the Nigeria. We will be determining the major reasons for child placement, common kindred cases as well as common medical conditions seen amongst the children under care. A retrospective analysis of case records in government owned family welfare institutions in the state between 1995 and 2005 was done. Oral interview was also conducted for officer's in-charge of these institutions. The results showed that cases of child abuse and neglect are the major reasons for child placement in foster care, and a steady rise has been noticed in spite of the existence of protective laws and regulations. This has led to an overwhelming of the available family welfare services in the state. There is need for community sensitization on the adverse effects of abuse and neglect; on the child, the family and the society at large. Government should strengthen the various family welfare service institutions and improve on its family economic empowerment programmes. This will enhance the family income and prevent children from entering into inadequate and inappropriate foster care system.
