Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program is designed to assist families in which the father is absent, making it most common for female head-of-household families to qualify. It is not required for both parents to be in the home, nor is it restricted to families with adult children with disabilities. While there may be restrictions on receiving assistance from multiple support programs, this is not a defining characteristic of the program.
