The card should save counties an average of $7 per issuance each month, said Gladys Carrion, the agency's commissioner, in a press release Thursday.
The cards "will provide much-needed workload relief associated with a paper payment process," she said. "Also, adoptive parents will enjoy the convenience of a more timely payment, and no longer have to deal with lost or stolen checks, or waiting in line at the bank to cash them."
