Establishes the statewide kinship navigator program

This bill establishes a statewide kinship navigator program within New York's Office of Children and Family Services. It directly assists kinship caregivers - individuals caring for relatives' children (including prospective caregivers and relative guardians) - by providing free help accessing services and benefits. Key provisions include referrals, free legal consultations, application support for Medicaid, SNAP, child care subsidies, and coordination across state agencies like health, education, and social services. The program will operate through regional offices (7-12 regions), maintain a toll-free hotline, and offer local respite services to help caregivers navigate available support.
