AFDiT stands for Anti-racist Framework for Decision-making in Transitioning children from minoritised racial and ethnic groups into transracial adoptive families (AFDiT).
The framework has been developed to help support children who are moving into transracial adoption. It gives social workers a framework to refer to in helping support adoptive parents understand the needs and identity of a child that may have a different heritage or ethnicity than their own.
Why is AFDiT needed?
AFDiT is a framework that is intended to ensure positive identity outcomes for all minoritised ethnic children moving into transracial adoption. It encourages a holistic consideration of the long-term implications of racial identity for Black, Asian, and minoritised, race and ethnic groups.
