Abstract:
A two-page summary of a recent report issued by the Office of Inspector General (OIG) outlining their findings and recommendations concerning the problems many families leaving TANF experience in collecting the child support payments they are entitled to as they transition from welfare to self-sufficiency. The receipt of child support at this time of transition can be crucial as a family strives to become self-sufficient.
