Which states have an IWRP form?

Has any state or county TANF program developed a single screening tool that could be used to identify families at risk of long-term reliance on TANF?

Are you aware of any TANF agencies that have specialized case managers that focus on SSI advocacy? If so, do you have information on what training they've received, job descriptions, competencies?

We are comparing the maximum TANF cash benefit to a family of three, by state. Does anyone know where we can find that information for each state?

To my knowledge one of the important changes of the Personal Responsibility and Work opportunities Act (PRWORA) was that the new Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, which replaced AFDC, enabled the federal states to decide whether to refuse further payments to single parent who bear another child during the time they receive social assistance. Is there a list available which states decided to do so or could you recommend any other source to find out which states make use of this possibility and which do not? Thank you very much.

Can a Head Start Program use volunteer services from families receiving TANF as part of the program's non federal match (in-kind)?

What do you do when your clients no show for set appointments?

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.

Please describe the structure of your training and staff development unit. Most importantly, how you accomplish the training of TANF, Food Stamps, Medicaid, Adult/Elderly etc. Secondly, if you have systems trainers and how work is assigned regarding eligibility management systems, child support systems, child care systems etc. Thanks!
