dc.description | A number of grandparents and other relatives find themselves serving as parents for children whose own parents are unable to care for them. Sometimes, the arrangement (referred to as 'kinship care') is an informal, private arrangement between the parents and relative caregivers; in other situations, the child welfare system is involved. This factsheet is designed to help kinship caregivers including grandparents, aunts and uncles, and other relatives caring for children work effectively with the child welfare system. | |
