The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded a $135,517,065 Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Block Grant to the Health Services Kentucky Cabinet For, a Kentucky state government entity, for the period of October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025. The TANF program provides federal funding to states to support low-income families with children through a range of social services, including cash assistance, employment training, child care, nutrition aid, child welfare programs, and domestic violence support. The Cabinet plans to utilize this Block Grant funding to deliver these critical services and programs across Kentucky in order to enable children to be cared for in their own homes or the homes of relatives, while working to end families' dependence on government benefits. The Cabinet may sub-award portions of this grant to local government entities, non-profit organizations, and community service providers to implement localized assistance programs throughout the state.
