The National Social Protection Agency (NSPA) has announced that it will introduce allowances for foster parents.
Chairperson of NSPA Ibrahim Waheed said that Rf500 would be provided to registered parents and Rf1000 for registered children every month.
”Any person who has a written document from the court that a person is taking care of a orphan child is admissible,” Waheed said. ”We consider as anyone under the age of eighteen to be a child.”
Waheed said that Rf500 would be provided for each kid a person looked after.
