What is Kinship Care? Kinship Care (formal) refers to when a child comes to the attention of a local department of social service and the department then places a child with the relative caregiver. The relative maintains custody of the child by providing 24 hour care, 7 days per week to the child.
Consent for Health Care -Affidavit Provision provides for a relative of a child providing informal kinship care to consent to health care on behalf of the child. The relative must be able to verify the informal kinship care arrangement through an affidavit. To receive this form, Call 410-767-7249.
Length of the Approval process In Kinship care the approval process tends to be a little quicker, averaging about 30 days. In emergency situations, children can be placed with a relative more quickly, prior to the approval process, as long as there are no safety concerns.
Informal kinship care arrangements are made privately between family members. Legal custody is not granted or required. Informal kinship care arrangements are not supervised by Marylands Local Departments of Social Services but can be supported voluntarily by the Local Departments Kinship Navigator Program.
The Kinship Guardianship Assistance Program is a program consistent with 42 U.S.C. 673 that provides, subject to a kinship guardianship assistance agreement, payments to eligible individuals who have received custody of a relative child of whom they had been the foster parents.

You must pass an assessment by a social worker to become a kinship foster carer. They will ask for practical information and details about your parenting experience, relationships and childhood. All adults in your house will need to pass police checks. It can feel intrusive and can be a difficult process to go through.
Kin/grandfamily caregivers are often socially isolated from their peers and may feel guilt and shame about their adult relative or friend who is unable to parent, especially if it is their own adult child. They may neglect their own physical and/or mental health as they focus on caring for the children.
