SUBJECT:
GRANDPARENTS AS FOSTER PARENTS (GAFP) CLOTHING VOUCHER
DISCUSSION:
Attached is a sample GAFP clothing voucher pdf file which contains all the information required for issuance.  In an effort to standardize the issuance of clothing vouchers it may be used by those counties who have not formalized their procedures.  If counties choose not to follow this example they will be responsible for making sure all the necessary information and documentation is provided to the Payment Unit when the DBF-14 is sent up to reimburse the store or participant.

The required information for the clothing voucher is:

  • current date;
  • case name;
  • child name;
  • store name and location;
  • authorized to purchase what items;
  • total amount of authorization;
  • information that needs to accompany the sales receipt in the request for payment; and
  • the date the voucher expires.  This date should be no longer than 2 months from being given to the participant.
NECESSARY ACTION:
  • Review this memorandum with appropriate staff.
