Is there any financial assistance available when traveling with foster children? We have a cruise booked for the end of the year, and while we'd love to bring the girls (they'll be 11 and 23 months at time of travel) we can't afford the extra $2200 on top of what we're already paying.

Actually it depends! In LA COUNTY I recently heard from a CSW that the county does have funds for foster kids to travel. I was told that they want foster kids to experience things such as travel so some workers will tap into this fund but it depends on your worker. They have funds available for airline tickets, school trips, etc. I don't know if there are age restrictions and your girls are little and probably wouldn't remember but I know that they were going to help with a plane ticket for my ffd. All you can do is ask and see what they say.
