TANF Work Participation Rates

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issues TANF state work participation rates, which measure how well states engage families receiving assistance in certain work activities during a fiscal year. For work participation rate purposes, states include the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the US territories of Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. A state must meet an overall (or “all families”) and a two-parent work participation requirement or face a potential financial penalty.  Units of Response: TANF Recipients, Work-Eligible Individuals Type of Data: Administrative Tribal Data: Yes Periodicity: Annual Demographic Indicators: Not Applicable SORN: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/04/02/2015-07440/privacy-act-of-1974-system-of-records-notice Data Use Agreement: Unavailable Data Use Agreement Location: Unavailable Granularity: State Spatial: United States Geocoding: State
