Are you a family law attorney looking for a meaningful way to give back? Join TLSC’s Kincare Legal Assistance Project and help Texas caretakers who are providing a loving home for a child of a relative or friend when the parents are unable to care for them.
About the Program
The Kincare Legal Assistance Program is a statewide project to help non-parental caregivers with related or non-related children in their care gain long-term safety and security. The caregivers may have the child or children due to a formal CPS placement, an informal CPS placement, parental agreement, parental or primary caregiver death or incarceration or parental abandonment.
