If you are a parent or guardian of a child in foster care, adoption, or guardianship programs, this seeks to keep program approval and federal plan oversight in place for an additional three years.

The Title IV-E plan being extended incorporates the plan requirements for optional guardianship assistance, Title IV-E prevention services, and the Title IV-E kinship navigator programs. If you or your family use these programs, they are explicitly included in the Title IV-E plan the Administration is renewing.
