Tools for PFAPs

Under section 4 of the Youth Protection Act, when it is not in the interest of the child to be maintained in his family environment, the decision must aim to ensure, as far as possible, continuity of care and stability of ties and living conditions appropriate to the child's needs and age and as close as possible to a family environment. 

The PFAP to whom a child is entrusted shall house, care for, and provide a family living environment for the safety and development of the child. (Free translation of an excerpt from ministerial directives)

This section is intended for use by applicants applying for kinship foster family status. It includes several reference documents we encourage you to read as well as the necessary forms.

Financial Support

Under the Youth Protection Act, a per diem is paid to all PFAPs for expenses incurred during the period between the child's intake and the signing of the specific agreement. In order to receive this remuneration, PFAPs must complete a monthly invoicing schedule (French) provided by the institution. The following administrative directives guide facilities in processing the temporary status of applicants as kinship foster families. There are also details on the allowances granted.

  • Rétribution (Directives administratives sur les PFAP et rétributions) (in French)

In addition to their basic remuneration, PFAPs can also to obtain the Canada Child Benefit (CCB) to cover expenses related to the needs of the child in their care. To apply for the CCB, complete the RC66 form. CCB payments are available up to the time of your accreditation as a kinship foster family.
