Summary of Subsidy
Services
Often families who are
eager to adopt have questions about whether or not adoption is
something they
can afford. There is good news for families who have questions or concerns
about the cost of adoption in New Jersey.
A Subsidy Program is
available that helps families in New Jersey with their adoption plans.
This program applies to many children in the
foster care system; and may include older
adoptive children, children with
severe behavioral or emotional needs, and can often be
obtained for children
adopted from other states by a family in
New Jersey. Some of the
features of the New Jersey Subsidy Program include a
Medicaid card for health expenses
and/or a monthly stipend for extraordinary
medical or other expenses.
Included is a specific description of what the Subsidy
Program is, who it applies to, and how
it can be used. We encourage you to
obtain a
copy of this document and use it as a guide for
your future needs. You
can also contact
your local DYFS (Division of Youth and Family Services)
office,
or a local adoption agency
that specializes in placing special needs children
for more
information.
