The purpose of this Informational Letter (INF) is to inform local departments of social services and voluntary authorized agencies of the availability of the New York State Kinship Navigator Program. Developed jointly by the Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) and lead agency Rochester Catholic Family Center, the program is designed to creatively assist kinship caregivers and children in their care to gain access to information and community sort services. Any caregiver residing in any part of the state is able to utilize a toll-free phone line or website to identify kinship care related services in his/her home locale.
