Kinship Caregiver
The Liberty Resources Kinship Caregiver program provides a continuum of services to families in Oswego or Onondaga County who are providing full-time care on a formal or informal basis for youth with whom they have a connection by blood or prior relationship. Our mission is to help kinship caregivers successfully support the children in their care by creating a strong sense of community, and supporting everyone involved.
The simple act of caring is heroic.
Becoming a caregiver for a child or multiple children can be very rewarding, but can also present some unique challenges. Our program offers an array of services tailored to meet the needs and build on the strengths of the families we support. For many families, referral and linkage to available resources that offer supports such as financial, educational or legal information and community programs will be sufficient. Other families may choose to take advantage of the program’s case management or the availability of small financial grants for specific needs. Whatever supports are needed, we are here for you and your family.
