About this resource
This initiative provides financial support to families with children who are facing low income, assisting them in their journey towards self-sufficiency. The cash aid is designed to cover basic necessities such as food, clothing, shelter, and utilities. Participants in the TANF program may also have the opportunity to join 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 Process: Applications can be submitted online, via phone, or in person at a local office (note that Processing Centers do not provide in-person services). After submitting the application: - The local DHS office will reach out to schedule an in-person or phone interview - Applicants can also initiate contact with the local DHS office to arrange the interview - DHS staff are unable to leave messages on voicemails that do not include the applicant's name in the greeting.
Cost: There are no fees associated with this program.
