Kinship Guardianship Stipends

Kinship guardianship doesn't mean you are completely on your own financially. In fact, establishing it legally opens the door to specific state-funded "kinship caregiver" stipends and specialized Medicaid coverage designed to ensure the child's financial and physical needs are met.

I worked with Marcus* who took in his teenage nephew after his sister passed away. He was drowning in grocery and clothing bills. By securing a formal kinship guardianship, we unlocked state financial benefits that allowed him to enroll his nephew in sports and stabilize their household.

I have spent years helping families navigate the benefits system because affordability equals sustainability.

I'm perfect for aunts, uncles, and adult siblings who mention they are "helping out with the kids" long-term.

They want the peace of mind that they can fully afford to provide a rich upbringing.
