The Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Children and Families awarded a $51,048,986 Foster Care Title IV-E block grant to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) for the period of October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025. This program provides financial support to state, tribal, and territorial child welfare agencies to ensure safe and stable out-of-home care for children under their jurisdiction. The funding enables MDHHS to provide foster care maintenance payments, administrative expenses, training for staff and foster parents, and support for foster care case management systems. MDHHS has sub-awarded portions of this funding to various county government entities across Michigan to deliver foster care and related child welfare services directly within their local communities.
