Well, things are moving along and since we live 90 minutes away from the county working on this......paperwork is in the mail. Told today that the State does not have any money to help us out but they will give us a check for 100.00 for a clothing alotment since he was taken from his house with nothing.
The BP will have weekly visits for the next 60 days and and the CW is not happy about driving up here (the 90 minute drive to our house). I volunteered tomorrow to meet halfway but will not again becuase we figure it will cost us 80.00 a month in gas just to meet her halfway and if they are not willing to help us out money wise for the stuff he needs then we will not make it easy on them!
I hate being this way but they just don't do things fairly or make it easy on the FP. I may try the 30-day visit suggestion becuase they are saying it will be another 2 weeks before he can be placed in our home besides us babysitting him during the day. We are waiting for the background check paperwork to come in and then we will mail that off to them quickly to get stuff moving.
Do any of you have any other suggestions for other resources to help out with money issues? Someone mentioned CASA but not sure what that is. CW is not that forward in giving other resources for us to look into.

Soon to be FP of a beautiful one year old boy!
