Abstract:
A central element of the PRWORA is the creation of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families block grant (TANF) to replace the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program. This paper discusses the fundamental changes of the relationship between federal and state funds and the important implications for program design.
