TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE FOR NEEDY FAMILIES (TANF) AND TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE FOR OTHER NEEDY FAMILIES (TAONF)
TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE FOR NEEDY FAMILIES (TANF) AND TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE FOR OTHER NEEDY FAMILIES (TAONF)
TANF and TAONF are the time-limited welfare reform programs for adults with children. These programs are designed to protect those who cannot work and to require those who are able to work to do so.
TANF and TAONF provide monthly cash benefits to families for food, clothing, shelter, and other essentials. To qualify for this assistance, a family must include children under the age of 19 and earn a total gross income under 185% of the 2006 Federal Poverty Level (FPL). For a household of three persons, this means the monthly gross income must be less than $2,941 and the net income must be under $610, if the household includes an employable adult. For households where all adults are disabled, care is required for a disabled household member, or there is a child younger than six months of age, the net income must be under $763 per month. Effective April 18, 2013, assets are disregarded under the TANF/TAONF program.
