What does the TANF Final Rule say about child-only cases?

Frequently Asked Questions about Child-Only Cases

Why are child only cases declining less quickly than other cases?

Frequently Asked Questions about Child-Only Cases
It is not surprising that child-only cases are declining less quickly than other cases, because they have not been affected by most of the policy changes that have taken place in recent years. Child-only cases are not subject to time limits, and in most states, the responsible adults are not required to participate in work activities.
