Next Steps for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)

The Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, the nation’s primary safety net program for families with children, is due for reauthorization this year. The Urban Institute held a roundtable of experts from federal and state governments, academia, and policy organizations to discuss the program’s current status and effectiveness. Experts agreed that TANF’s goals need to be better articulated and that many key features of the program ,including funding, work requirements, and its place within the broader safety net, should be reexamined. Any assessment should consider especially how well TANF responds to family needs during a serious recession.
