The caseworker and the kinship development caseworker (KDW) must explain to the caregiver that his or her eligibility for certain services may change after becoming verified as a foster parent; for example:
• the caregiver is no longer eligible for the annual reimbursement provided under the Relative and Other Designated Caregiver Program; and
• the caregiver may not qualify for day care benefits provided for kinship care (see 8235.4 Foster Child Day Care).
