How are foster parents compensated for taking foster children into their home?
Rancho Jireh requires that a family earn enough income to sufficiently provide for their financial responsibilities. This can be demonstrated by completing the budget form during the certification process. Rancho Jireh provides a monthly reimbursement check to a foster family once a child is placed in the family’s home. This reimbursement is provided to meet the foster child’s expenses for food, clothing, entertainment, transportation, weekly allowance, and personal needs.
