Switch to Tribal Foster Care Less Costly to Kids

WASHINGTON (CN) - Transferring a child from state to tribal foster care no longer affects the child's eligibility for federal foster care benefits or Medicaid, according to a new regulation.

The new Administration for Children and Families regulation also makes it so the transfer does not affect "in-kind expenditures from third-party sources for the tribal share of administration and training expenditures under Title IV-E; and other provisions to carry out the tribal-related amendments to Title IV-E."
