Did you know you can get WIC for them
in most states...our state has a low foster care board rate, especially for infants....and the reason they give is that you can get WIC if you go to the office and complete the paper work...It helps a lot I hear for infants and covers most of the formula they need each month...older children to 5 it is about $30 worth of food a month, but helps if you have a bunch of kids.....
They also have a car seat program with the Department of Health and some deal with diapers, even older kids in foster care and get their pull up for bedwetting....
For some reason many foster parents around here don't seem to know about the other programs
