This is The Aftercare Project, stories reclaimed, futures reimagined.
If you’re living in care, or getting ready to leave, this space is for you.
Because the truth is — “aftercare” isn’t always there when you need it most.

​
Too many of us leave the system with nothing but silence, a case number, and the weight of questions no one helped us answer.
I know that feeling — because I’ve been there.
✶ ✶ ✶
​
That’s why The Aftercare Project exists.
✶ ✶ ✶
To make sure no young person has to carry their story alone.
✶ ✶ ✶
To turn files into voices.
To turn endings into beginnings.
✶ ✶ ✶
​
Here you’ll find poetry, zines, and creative spaces made with — and for — care-experienced young people.
✶ ✶ ✶
A place to be heard.
A place to imagine what comes next.
