Young woman speaks out about growing up in NI care system
Rhianna Browne is using her own traumatic experience of growing up in the care system to help improve services for other young people.
The 20-year-old campaigner has contributed to an independent review of children's social care services.
She told BBC News NI she wanted to tackle the stigma facing looked after children, and highlight the lack of continuity in support services.
Ms Browne spent most of her teens in kinship care, which is when a child lives with a relative or friend who is not their parent.
But between the ages of 12 and 18, she had to deal with 26 different social workers.
And in the three months before her 18th birthday, she was placed in 18 different foster settings.
