18 and insert in lieu thereof: the role of substitute parent as
19 a result of a court's determination of child abuse, neglect,
20 or abandonment and subsequent placement with the relative
21 pursuant to this chapter. Such placement may be either court
22 ordered temporary legal custody to the relative under
23 protective supervision of the department pursuant to s.
24 39.521(1)(b) 3; or court ordered placement in the home of a
25 relative as a permanency option pursuant to s. 39.622. The
26 relative Caregiver Program shall offer financial assistance to
27 caregivers who are relatives and who would be unable to serve
28 in that capacity without the relative caregiver payment
29 because of financial burden, thus exposing the child to the
30 trauma of placement in a shelter or in foster care.
