And they started using fosterparent income to form their priority, which was more to our disadvantage.

I believe the program she was referring to is Crystal Stairs. Jory has been on the waiting list since he was 3-months-old, he is now 4. When I called late last year, I was told they only have money now for children whose mother are on welfare. These children take precendence over foster children? Really?!?!
