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.

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.
