Kinship Care is about keeping children (who have been removed from their homes) with familial connections and keeping them out of foster care.
There are approximately 70,000 children in Kentucky living with relatives and most are (grandparents). Kentucky has twice the rate of drug-dependent babies than the U.S. Oftentimes, those babies are placed with relatives (Kinship Caregivers) other than the parents.
Many Kinship Caregivers have one adult in the home quit their job to care for drug-dependent babies because they require so much extra assistance.
We Need Your Help To Reinstate Kinship Care To Help Grandparents Support These Children!
You Should Be a Kentucky Resident. First and Last name makes a stronger impression!
