From AgingKingCounty: “In case you missed this good news last week: https://www.aging.senate.gov/press-releases/collins-casey-bill-to-support-grandparents-raising-grandchildren-signed-into-law
“According to n4a – “The Supporting Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Act, championed by Senate Aging Committee leaders Chairman Susan Collins (R-ME) and Bob Casey (D-PA), was signed by the President this week. The new law creates a federal task force charged with supporting grandparents raising grandchildren, acting essentially as a “one-stop shop” for information for the grandparents currently raising approximately 2.6 million children. Experts say this number is rising as the opioid epidemic continues to devastate families and communities across the country.”
