TANF provides cash assistance to low-income families with children. These benefits help meet a family's basic needs like food, clothing, rent and utilities while they work toward self-sufficiency.
Child support services are available to both custodial and noncustodial parents.
Most people who receive TANF benefits are required to participate in the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) program.
Family Support and Connections assigns a local family advocate to help families identify and overcome challenges.
