The Puerto Rico Department of the Family has been awarded a $24,440,604 Foster Care Title IV-E block grant by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Children and Families (CFDA 93.658). This 12-month grant, effective October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, will enable the Department to provide safe and stable out-of-home care for children under the jurisdiction of Puerto Rico's child welfare system. Funding will support foster care maintenance payments, administrative expenses, training for staff and foster parents, and foster care case management systems. The Department frequently partners with local nonprofits and municipalities as sub-recipients to deliver these federally funded child welfare services across Puerto Rico.
