Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The TANF program provides temporary cash benefits to eligible low-income families. However, in exchange for these benefits, recipients are required to work or participate in work-related activities for a certain number of hours per week. The other options (A, B, and D) are not necessarily tied to TANF requirements. Transportation costs may be covered by other programs such as Medicaid or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Affordable housing may be provided by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Food stamps are now known as SNAP and are separate from the TANF program.
