Title: Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Two-Parent Study.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is
proposing an information collection activity as part of the Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families Two-Parent Study. Through this
information collection, ACF seeks to gain an in-depth, systematic
understanding of the characteristics of two-parent families
participating in or eligible to receive TANF, the variety of services
two-parent families receive through TANF, how state policies may affect
participation in TANF among two-parent families, and how the beliefs of
staff and eligible families affect two-parent families' participation
in TANF.
The proposed information collection consists of semi-structured
interviews with key State and local staff, community-based organization
representatives, and adult members of two-parent TANF or likely
eligible families on questions of TANF policies, service delivery, and
program context, as well as focus groups with adult members of two-
parent TANF or likely eligible families.
Respondents: State- and local-level TANF administrators and staff,
representatives from community-based organizations, and adults from
two-parent families on or likely eligible for TANF.
