TANF Sanctions In Illinois
Enrollees in Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) face
sanctions if they do not comply with various program requirements. One
requirement to receive the cash benefit is participation with child
support enforcement if one parent is noncustodial.
Kathryn Kaplan and coauthors identify barriers to TANF participation
among families with young children in Illinois
<[link removed]>.
The authors' quantitative analysis of Illinois data shows that "Black
and multiracial families enrolled in TANF were more likely to be
sanctioned compared with families of other races."
Qualitative interviews highlight the role of child support cooperation
requirements, which the authors refer to as "an outdated and
institutionally racist operating model that takes away money from
families that are already struggling to achieve economic stability."
Read all the findings from Kaplan and coauthors' study as well as
additional research about TANF and other income supports in the December
2022 issue of Health Affairs.
