Since replacing Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) in 1996, the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program has served as one of the nation’s primary economic security and stability programs for families and children with low-incomes. TANF is a block grant that provides $16.6 billion annually to states, territories, the District of Columbia, and federally-recognized Indian tribes. These TANF jurisdictions use federal TANF funds to provide income support to families with children with low-income, as well as to provide a wide range of services (e.g., work-related activities, child care, and refundable tax credits) designed to accomplish the program’s four broad purposes. These statutory purposes are to:
- Provide assistance to needy families so that children can be cared for in their own homes or in the homes of relatives
- End the dependence of needy parents on government benefits by promoting job preparation, work, and marriage
- Prevent and reduce the incidence of out-of-wedlock pregnancies
- Encourage the formation and maintenance of two-parent families
While TANF jurisdictions must meet certain work participation and cost sharing requirements, they have considerable flexibility with TANF funds to implement programs that best serve their distinct communities.
TANF Program Contact Information
ACF provides states, territories, and tribes with Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) block grants to help families with children experiencing low-income achieve economic self-sufficiency. The federal government does not provide TANF cash assistance directly to the public. Instead, states, territories, and tribes use their TANF grants to fund monthly cash assistance payments to families with children experiencing low-income, as well as a wide range of services that are designed to address one or more of the program’s four broad purposes.
Select your state or territory from the list below for local TANF and Tribal TANF help, policies, and other program information. General Benefits links below provide access to centralized benefit portals with information about programs beyond TANF cash assistance.
For information on your state’s policies, find your state program.
For questions about the federal administration of TANF, contact info.OFA@acf.hhs.gov.
