APPENDIX 9: SUPPORT PAYMENTS TO PROVISIONAL RESOURCE PARENTS
For relative and fictive kin resource homes (referred to collectively as kinship homes) that are opened on a provisional basis, the Division will provide a monthly support payment in the amount of $240 per child placed in the home. The monthly support payment is designed to help defray costs associated with meeting the immediate needs of children placed in the provisional resource home. The support payment will be pro-rated, as applicable, based on the placement and exit dates of the child in the provisional kinship home service. Eligibility for support payments is limited to a maximum of six consecutive months per placement episode. When a kinship home moves from being provisionally approved to fully approved, the support payment will cease, and the fully approved kinship home will receive a full foster care maintenance payment for the children placed in their home.
