    Custody of siblings
    I have been in foster care on and off all of my life I am 20yrs old and am aging out next year. I am the oldest out of 9 of us. But I will only take custody of the 4 youngest ones.

    I want custody of my siblings but I don't know how.

    Can I put them on my NYCHA/ Section8 application? I am going to need more space then a 1 bedroom.

    Will I get assistance to provide for them?

    What will I have to do to get them out of the home of their neglent father?

    I've been in teen homes and in foster care all of my teen years also..

    I'm from Alaska...
    And I want to get custudy of my siblings also..
    4 of us.
    Child services told me that I have to be 21 to get them though.. im 19.
    When and if I choose to take care of them they can help you get a house and money for the kids.
    And because I aged out.. I got a full scholarship to attend college.. they said that they will help with day care as well..
    So I hope this helps
