Have you heard of Kinship Care?

When an extended family member or a close family friend cares for a child who has been removed from home by DFPS, it is referred to as Kinship Care. Kinship Care offers an alternative to foster care, helps keep families intact, and can reduce the trauma children experience by being separated from their parents and home.

Pathways helps families become licensed kinship homes. To learn more about kinship care, contact your local Pathways branch office to speak to one of our knowledgeable staff!
