If a worker takes a child into custody and places that child with a biological mother's sister:

A homestudy is not needed
the worker does not need to do a shelter hearing
the relative may be eligible for relative caregiver funds
the worker must have the mother's approval

The correct answer is: the relative may be eligible for relative caregiver funds

Placing a child with a relative may be a viable option when a child needs to be taken into custody, however, it's important to consider all factors. In this scenario, choosing option A or B can be harmful to the child and can mean neglecting doing shelter hearing or the mandatory homestudy. When considering placing a child with a relative, the worker must have the biological mother's approval, as indicated in option D. However, option C is the best choice because it states that the relative may be eligible for financial support through relative caregiver funds, which can greatly benefit both the child and the relative household. Overall, option C is the best choice due to its general consideration of the factors at play and potential positive outcomes for both the child and the relative.
