How does Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) help the foster child make the transition when returning to his or her natural parents?

The foster parents' help is often enlisted to support the child through the process of reintegration with the natural parents. The Child Protection Officer together with the foster parents will prepare the child and help the child to understand the move back to his or her natural parents. Access time with natural parents is introduced gradually to check on the readiness of both natural parents and the child before plans for reintegration can be made. Once it is assessed that it is safe for the child to return to the natural parents, the child is allowed to return home under the close supervision of Child Protection Service. The Child Protection Officer would also continue to make unannounced surprise visits to check on the level of care provided by the natural parents and to ensure the safety of the child.
