Abstract: The report explores how state and federal policies and demographic and economic trends have shaped child-only caseloads, situating child-only TANF policy in the context of other policies, such as SSI disability aid, child welfare, and immigration. The research centers on cross-state and over-time analyses of the four types of TANF casesNPC child-only, SSI child-only, IIP child-only and adult-aided (including aided sanctioned and timed-out cases). Project data include state reports of TANF policies and caseload counts, multi-year administrative data from four focal states(California, Florida, Illinois, and New York),2010 TANF caseload data broken out by type of child-only case for 35 states, data from population-based surveys, and, in the focal states, interviews with agency staff, policy-makers and advocates.
