Introducing CLNM
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 Peoples National Steering Group in 2017 and officially launched as CLNM at the National House Project (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, as well as always making sure that young people are at the heart of NHP.
