The image shows a page from a document titled "Excerpts from Lagos and Plateau State GAC". The text discusses the "Guidelines for Alternative Care in Lagos State", focusing on enhancing legal frameworks for children without parental care. They align with Nigerian laws and international conventions, emphasizing family-based care and decentralization. The guidelines apply to children under 18 and those needing care beyond 18, prioritizing supportive, protective care. Kinship care places children with extended family; maintaining cultural ties. Temporary safe care involves short-term shelter, while foster care involves state-approved families. Guardianship care assigns legal responsibility and residence; independent living helps young adults transition to independence, while community parenting and Confiage offer cultural care alternatives.
