Question from ACF Region X

Question Text

Do any states require minor children to attend school as a condition of eligibility for TANF benefits? We are not referring to minors who are a head of household, but minor children on someone else's grant. School attendance is not required for these children by Federal law or regulation, as it is for a minor head of household. However, states can include school attendance by minor children as a requirement in the Individual Responsibility Plan for the adult head of household.
