The Care Leavers National Movement (CLNM) is a group of young people made up of care leavers from Local House Projects (LHPs) from across England and Scotland. They use their skills and experience to be expert advisors and develop LHPs whilst improving outcomes for all young people leaving care.
CLNM started as the Young People's National Steering Group in 2017 and officially launched as CLNM at the NHP Conference in 2019. CLNM is part of NHP, and its core purpose is to develop and implement the NHP framework of support that allows young people leaving care to live connected and fulfilling lives. CLNM also provides challenge to improve wider leaving care services within Local Authorities and the Government.
CLNM has four objectives:
1. To celebrate success – to inspire, inform and influence change
2. To improve services - develop and try new ideas
3. To provide challenges - to improve the system for young people
4. To peer evaluate all LHPs and implement recommendations
Peer Evaluation
Young people from CLNM peer evaluate LHPs every two years and work on the recommendations in the intervening years.
