Federal cuts force Foster Grandparent Program to close after 60 years

The program, which recently celebrated its 60th anniversary, may come to an end in September. Federal budget cuts forced AmeriCorps to cut the program's funding after the Trump administration pulled nearly $400 million in grants.
