65 josephinehopkinsGBI believe this lack of financial help is a problem Grandparents have suffered for far to long.
66 SharlaBakerNVUSWe need help with these issues and more. We moved to Nevada in September from Maui with our 3 year old grandson Alex and have had many problems with Nevada ICPC and the foster Certification on the way to adoption of our son, due to delays in paperwork, etc. Who do we contact?

76 carolynleeI have been bringing my grandson up as sole carer for the last 5 years.His mother, my daughter has learning difficulties and suffers with mental health issues.To date I have recieved no help with my grandson who also suffers with mental health issues.who would care for a child like this, providing nurture care love and stability,if I didn't? No foster carer would be able to cope or would want to.
