As Kinship caregivers, the most primary concern we have is being able to care for our families. Money becomes central to that concern. In this webinar, we will explore the resources available to kinship families including recent changes to kinship financial supports including Kentucky Transitional Assistance Program (KTAP), Relative and Fictive Kin Placement Support Benefit (RFKPSB), and the new Subsidized Permanent Custody (SPC) option for those providing kinship foster care.
