Kinship Caregivers Support Groups

According to the Anne Arundel County Department of Aging and Disabilities:

Kinship Care is commonly defined as the full-time care, nurturing, and protection of children by relatives or other adults who have a family relationship to the child. It is a growing phenomenon in this country, with about 1 in 10 children living with their grandparents.

Participants are encouraged to ask questions about raising a relative’s child, such as financial concerns and guidance about county services.
