No, not exactly. Foster parents do typically receive somereimbursements from the local government while they actually have children under their care, but not just for owning the home.
So that no children will be on the street or they wont be treated wrong with their parents. The government needs to have foster care to help these kids with broken homes have a better lifestyle and help them be productive members of society.
This varies from state to state. You will no longer receive a stipend or board rate, but may qualify for an adoption subsidy. Generally you will only qualify if the child is a special needs child in some way (behavioral, medical, psychological, sibling group, teen, mixed race, etc)
all of them

Foster children can be from any ethnic background.
Foster parents generally receive a board rate or a stipend to cover these costs.; they sometimes receive a specific clothing allowance for them.
You do not get paid for being a foster parent you get reimbursed for child's expenses and they also receive a medical card so there is no medical bills that the family incurs. Getting paid for being a foster parent is the give and take relationship you achieve with your child. In some states, foster parents are in fact paid a perdiem for each child. An average in Texas is $30 per day per child. This is meant to cover the child's expenses (other than medical) but it isn't reimbursed. It's paid to the foster family and they are expected to provide for the child.
Yes, we did.
The foster parents receive a set sum for each child from the state and the parents pay the state. Since it would be a very different sum for each child based on what parents can pay, the sum is set for each child and every state have this system. The foster parents should not have to use their money. if that was the case we would have very few foster families because they would not afford it.
It depends on the situation; you will no longer get the board rate, but may qualify for an adoption subsidy. You're more likely to qualify if you adopt special needs children (older children, sibling groups, medical needs, behavioral issues, sometimes minorities, etc)
Hitler never had foster children or biological ones.He never had one. I have no idea where this rumor comes from.
