The State Fiscal Year 2000-01 budget established a TANF Services Block Grant to fund an array of programs, designed by local districts, to meet the transitional service needs of eligible TANF families. The intent of the block grant is to provide program design flexibility to local districts and to simplify the process for accessing TANF funding. To further simplify the process for accessing TANF funds, local districts will only be required to submit a single document, the TANF Services Plan, to access their block grant allocation as well as their allocations for Domestic Violence Screening, Drug/Alcohol Assessments and Monitoring, and Learnfare.
