So, it&#8217;s an informal and temporary arrangement.<\/p>\n<p>Kinship caregivers provide 24\/7 care in the home of a relative or family by choice (non-relative). This keeps kids connected to their culture and community.<\/p>\n<p>The child may be placed in a caregiver&#8217;s home:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>at the request of the local Department of Social Services or<\/li>\n<li>through an informal request from the child&#8217;s parent if they encounter a serious hardship<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Kinship caregivers partner with the child and their biological parent.<\/p>\n<p>That new relationship can challenge family dynamics and impact the child, parent, and the caregiver&#8217;s family.<\/p>\n<p>While the 24\/7 care is supposed to be temporary, sometimes the kinship caregiver becomes part of the permanent solution by adopting the child or becoming their legal guardian.<\/p>\n<p>Kinship navigators can help caregivers navigate the process and connect them to available resources and benefits. Nationally, kinship caregivers underutilize available benefits, often because they don&#8217;t know they are a kinship caregiver or that resources and benefits exist.<\/p>\n\t\t<h3>Get Kinship Text Messages<\/h3>\n\t\t<p>Sign up for MDKinCares and learn about resources, programs, and get encouraging messages of support.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"sms:\/\/898-211;?&#038;body=MDKinCares\"  target=\"_self\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tEnv\u00ede MDKinCares al 898211\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<h3>Kinship Navigation Help<\/h3>\n\t\t<p>Trina Townsend cared for her niece and nephew when they were teenagers.
