The purpose of this message is to inform social services districts (districts) that the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has approved a waiver of ABAWD requirements for certain districts and jurisdictions. Additionally, this message informs districts that the attached "Notice of ABAWD Status" is being mailed starting on December 3rd to Able-Bodied Adults Without Dependents (ABAWDs) in districts outside of New York City that are not covered by a district-wide waiver of ABAWD requirements. OTDA previously indicated this notice would be mailed in late November.
