Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) block grant and made modifications expected to strengthen work requirements for families receiving cash assistance through state TANF programs.

(2) How has the recent economic recession affected state TANF programs? (3) How did the ARRA affect state TANF programs? Illustrations.
