This book considers the impact of digital media and technology on
lived experience for young people in foster care. While the extent
and intricacies of foster care-known as out-of-home care (OOHC) in
Australia, where this study takes place-are not widely understood
by the general public, youth in care might struggle to construct a
personal identity that goes beyond reflecting the stereotypes and
stigma by which they are often recognised. In today's digital
environment, media can play a significant role in any individual's
developing sense of self, identity, and belonging. Deitz and
Sheridan Burns examine OOHC through the lens of networked media
environments and investigate the conditions that encourage
belonging and resilience in order to establish the role that
digital technology can play in supporting those conditions for
individuals, family networks, and the care sector.
