I live in the state of Florida, does anyone know if I would get WIC or Daycare privlages? Also does income amount matter or do *all* Foster parents get that?

All foster parents can get WIC. WIC is determined by the child's income (for foster care) which is whatever the state pays you, which is not alot!!!

You should call and ask a county or agency worker about daycare. We do have a program in CA, that I could try to qualify for, but the waiting list is about 2 years long for benefits. Ridiculous, considering I haven't had a foster child for longer than 6 months yet.
