Best Answer

Depends on who you contract with. I am a Foster Parent to a totally disabled lady who is MHMD who was abused in a Group Home, over medicated and neglected...NO ONE CARED. I took her into my home, threw away the meds, gave her a life. I get paid a measly 2.65 an hour/24/7 with no help of any kind. If I was in need of any type of 'help', I have to hire someone, but it would cost at least $15 per hour, minimum of 4 hours, and that is just to 'sit and watch'..no work involved. I cannot afford 'help', and I better not get sick or hurt.

Do foster parents get reimbursed in Illinois?

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.
