A community discussion about supporting grandparents who are raising their grandkids.

Grandparents becoming primary caregivers for their grandchildren is a growing trend. While they help provide a stable home for children coming from chaotic situations, these grandparents are often unprepared for the challenges of being parents again, especially when their grandchildren are dealing with trauma. What can New Mexico do to support these grandparents and ensure these children thrive?
