A new Connecticut act has expanded who can apply for the Kinship and Respite Grant Programs. Now, guardians who are not related to the children they take care of are able to apply for the programs. This benefits those individuals who aren’t granted guardianship subsidies or foster care payments from the Department of Children and families.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this new act, please feel free to call our office at (860) 423-9231!

More summaries of new acts to come in the coming weeks!
