SFY-22-E
Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)
for SFY 2022
The Division of Aging and Adult Services (DAAS) estimates the Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families (TANF) State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2022 appropriation will be $3,724,000. The final SFY 2022
TANF appropriation has not been determined. Consequently, level funding estimates have been used
to determine SFY 2022 contract allocations. When DAAS receives the final SFY 2022 appropriation
for Community and Emergency Services, TANF allocations may be adjusted accordingly. If funding
levels change, a new ALERT will be issued.
Funds will be distributed based on the following factors: number of individuals at or below 125 percent
of the Federal Poverty Level, low-income families with children under 18, urban or rural status, and a
minimum funding variable. The data sources used for the poverty and low-income families with children
under 18 years of age was the 2015-2019 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates and the
2010 United States Census for the rural factors, respectively.
The following initial contract allocations are being made to designated Community Action Agencies
and the Limited Purpose Agency serving Migrant and Seasonal Farm Workers for SFY 2022.
