About this resource
This initiative provides financial aid to low-income families with children, assisting them in achieving self-sufficiency. The cash assistance is designed to cover essential needs such as food, clothing, shelter, and utilities. Participants in the TANF program may also have the opportunity to engage in the Jobs Opportunity and Basic Skills (JOBS) program, which aids in obtaining a high school diploma or GED, along with job readiness and life skills training.
Intake Procedure: Applications can be submitted online, via phone, or in person at a local office (Processing Centers do NOT provide in-person services). After submitting an application: - The local DHS office will contact the applicant to arrange an in-person or phone interview appointment. - Applicants may also reach out to the local DHS office to schedule the interview. - DHS staff cannot leave messages on voicemails that do not include the applicant's name in the greeting.
