• Detailed Information

  • The Grandparents Raising Grandchildren program provides temporary assistance to grandparents who have primary custody of grandchildren age 18 and younger.  The program’s case managers assess the needs of grandparents and arrange services that support their goals. These services include respite vouchers that can be used for day care or summer camp, help with back-to-school clothing and supplies, and benefits counseling.

    
    

    The program gives priority to grandparents who care for grandchildren who are medically fragile or have special needs; care for more than one person (i.e. grandchild, elderly family member, disabled adult); have had a hospitalization within the last four weeks, and/or have experienced physical problems because of their care responsibilities; care for grandchildren who have no other support, either paid or unpaid; and/or have income at or below 150% of the federal poverty level ($1,882 for an individual, or $2,554 for a couple).
