Building on our legacy, the NewPath Kinship Care program is designed for relatives and close family friends who step in during a crisis to keep children connected to the people and community they know best. NewPath helps kinship caregivers navigate the pathway to licensure so families can access enhanced supports such as Ohio Medicaid to cover healthcare and behavioral health costs, increased per diem resources, training, supportive case management from a team of professionals, and help connecting to services that are right for your family.”
