Today millions of children are living with grandparents or other relatives without their parents. You or someone you know might be caring for a kinship child right now. These grand families take on a terrific rescue at considerable cost to themselves and provide a significant service to the society at large, saving millions in child welfare dollars. A Kinship Guide to Rescuing Children helps these courageous families navigate this difficult world.
