Orphans and Vulnerable Children & Young Adults in South Korea
Vulnerable children are placed in welfare homes for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, being an orphan. Abandonment, unstable family situations, health issues, etc. are other reasons for placement. Therefore, the term welfare home is used instead of orphanage. Regardless of the reason for being placed in a welfare home, all of these children are vulnerable and at-risk and must deal with the stigma and trauma of living in a welfare home.
