This course will offer a general overview of adoption assistance and subsidies at the Federal and State level. The speakers will discuss interstate issues; eligibility concerns; common mistakes; and the process for applying for non-ward subsidies. This content is for pre-adoptive parents and adoption professionals with little to no knowledge on subsidies. The information being shared in this presentation is built from a working group of NCFA, AAAA, and Families Rising (formerly known as NACAC).
