Sažetak
According to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, State Parties should ensure alternative care for children deprived of their biological family environment, or in whose own best interests cannot be allowed to remain in biological family. Foster care is one of these alternative care systems, which enables children removed from the biological family to grow and develop in family context rather than in institutions. In this talk I shall put forward theoretical reasoning and present empirical data supporting the notion that foster care is a relevant system which promotes and protects development of vulnerable population of children deprived of biological family. However, to be effective, foster care must meet certain quality criteria, which will also be discussed in the talk. Using the case of Croatian foster care system, which has undergone profound changes and improvements during the last two decades, I shall illustrate the importance of implementing theoretical and empirical knowledge from the field of developmental science in building quality foster care.
