The New York State Department of Social Services is pleased to announce that it is seeking proposals from local social services districts for a limited expansion of the Child Assistance Program (CAP) demonstration. CAP is a cash benefit and support services program that provides a real alternative to the current system of welfare for single parents and their children. Going well beyond current statute and practice, CAP provides single AFDC parents with positive financial incentives to work and affirm the duty of absent parents to support their children.
