US: Pay Foster Parents to Stay Home with Infants, Not Put Them in Daycare (Opinion)
Chronicle of Social Change – April 11, 2016
On April 1 in The Chronicle, Jeremy Loudenback reported on a California budget proposal that would allocate $31 million to provide emergency child care vouchers to foster parents caring for children ages 0 to 3. Based on my experience as a social worker for foster children in the District of Columbia, I would recommend moving in the opposite direction and using the funds to pay foster parents for staying home with younger children.
