The foster family will receive a monthly stipend, as well as quarterly clothing allowance and Medicaid and dental care coverage for the child up to the age of 18. Other supports include a developmental assessment by a nurse, who will be one of the primary sources of support; case management that provides comprehensive individualized support to foster parents; referral to support services; and ongoing monthly foster parenting training.
