Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) is a federally funded welfare program that provides financial aid to families containing at least one parent and one child. States are required to maintain certain work participation requirements, or they risk having their TANF funding reduced by 5 percent. States are required to make sure the families receiving aid meet all eligibility requirements.
