The Office of Family Assistance (OFA) has completed a review of the following rule and the rule has been to a review by the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review (JCARR).  The rule will be rescinded on 10/1/2023.

Chapter 2000

5101:1-24-30 "Kinship Caregiver Program."

This rule describes the requirements for ensuring TANF eligibility of the Kinship Caregiver Program (KCP) assistance groups; the protections for ensuring that benefits and services remain TANF non-assistance; the elements of stabilization caregiving services; and defines the assistance group composition for each service.  OFA has rescinded this rule due to the Amended Substitute House Bill 33 of the 135th General Assembly being signed into law on July 3, 2023, removing the Kinship Caregiver Program.
