Kinship Caregiver Action Plan

Welcome to the Kinship Caregiver Action Plan Interview

This interview helps kinship caregivers in Ohio find information on court processes, enrolling children in school, getting children medical care and getting access to benefits. 

When a child cannot live with his or her parents, kinship caregivers often take over the full-time responsibility of caring for that child, providing ongoing stability, support and guidance. The definition of a kinship caregiver also goes beyond the scope of relatives and may include an adult who has a relationship with the child or the family.

At the end of the interview you will get a summary of basic information with links to more detailed information and forms. 

Ohio Legal Help does not provide legal advice. It does not take the place of advice from a lawyer. Ohio Legal Help encourages you to talk about your legal options with a lawyer. 

First, we want to make sure that the child or children involved in this matter are safe.
