National carers strategy: child rights and wellbeing impact assessment

This is evidence of the child rights and wellbeing Impact assessment (CRWIA) that was carried out prior to the publication of the National Carers Strategy.


9. How will you communicate to children and young people the impact of the policy/measure on their rights?

We will work through our three funded stakeholders (Carers Trust Scotland, Young Scot and Family Fund) who work with young carers to communicate the impact and progress of the policies and committed actions in the Strategy. Any changes to policies and actions which could have an impact on their caring role will also be communicated.

An easy read version of the Strategy has also been published and disseminated to the relevant stakeholders to share with young carers.

A child-friendly CRWIA will be available upon request.
