[quote=Anonymous]I am a FM in DC. They didn't provide anything and most items had to be on site prior to placement. We did a five point seat and had a booster on hand that were good but not great and once we got the placement we upgraded. Same with clothes we had a couple of basic Tee's around for the age group but overall the 24hr wal mart went into full effect. Our placement came from another Foster home that kept them very well so clothes came in mass amounts. The compensation is way more than $15 but it comes almost a month and a half after placement. In a way you are playing catch up with the expenses. Many day/camp and aftercare facilities won't take vouchers so you may have to pay out of pocket and wait for reimbursement. (and I do mean wait) Chances are the rates charged are over the allotment and you won't get the full amount back. [/quote]
