What belongings will foster children take when they leave my home?
(1) You must permit a child who leaves your home to take their personal belongings with them. This includes belongings the child brought with them and acquired in your care, such as clothing, mementos, bicycles, gifts, and any saved money.
(2) If it is not possible for the child to take their belongings at the time they leave, you are required to secure them for up to 30 days and cooperate with the child's DCYF caseworker to transfer them to the child, as soon as possible.
