Abstract

Boarded Out is a term used to describe children who were fostered or raised with families other than their own in Ireland. This happened mainly between 1920 - 1970. There was also a practice of being nursed out, where infants were placed with women who could care for them. Some children were boarded out up to the introduction of the 1991 ChildCare Act. While many children were boarded out on farms in rural areas, children were also placed in homes in larger towns and cities. If you have experience of being boarded out, you can avail of Barnardos free and confidential service offering a wide range of practical supports,
