TANF Families
The average monthly number of TANF families was 1,847,155 in FY 2010. The estimated average monthly number of TANF recipients was 1,084,828 adults and 3,280,153 children.
Ohio ranked third with a monthly average of 103, 000.
The average number of persons in TANF families was 2.4, including an average of 1.8 recipient children
Less than eight percent of families had more than three children. The average number of children in closed-case families was 1.8.
Almost half of TANF families had no adult recipients. About 49 percent of TANF families had only one adult recipient, and 5 percent included two or more adult recipients.
Eighty-two percent of TANF families received SNAP benefits in FY 2010, which is consistent with previous levels. These families received average monthly SNAP benefits of $378. In addition, 97 percent of TANF families received medical assistance in FY 2010. Of closed-case families, 81 percent received SNAP benefits in the month of closure and 95 percent received medical assistance in the month of closure.
2010 families 31.8% white. 31.9% black 30% Hispanic
Most TANF adult recipients were women, as men only represented 14.8 percent of adult recipients. Ninety percent of adult recipients were the head of the household. There were about 94,800 teen parents whose child also was a member of the TANF family, representing 12 percent of recipients aged 13-19. Fourteen percent of adult recipients were married and living together. The number of married adult recipients was low because many States moved two-parent families to SSF or SSP-MOE programs.
In FY 2010, work participation was mandatory for three of every five adult recipients. Overall, 41.6 percent of all TANF adult recipients participated in some type of work activity during the reporting month. Eleven percent of TANF adult recipients met work activity requirements by either being a teen parent attending school or being a single parent with a child under 6 participating for 20 hours per week (parents with children ages 6 and over are required to participate for 30 hours per week). Additionally, ten percent of adult recipients were disregarded from work participation because they were single custodial parents with a child less than 12 months old. 1.6 percent were exempt because of a sanction, 12.6 percent were exempt because of a good cause exception (e.g., disabled, in poor health, or other), and two percent of adult recipients were exempt from the work participation requirements because they were single custodial parents with a child under age six who did not have access to child care
Among all TANF adult recipients twenty-nine percent worked in unsubsidized or subsidized jobs, 10.9 percent were engaged in job training or educational activities, 8.1 percent participated in job search activities, and another 4.1 percent were engaged in other statutorily listed work activities. Some TANF adults were involved in two or three work activities. Those participating did so for an average of 23.3 hours per week, and some adults participated even though they were work exempt.
TANF Children
More than seventy four percent of recipient children were under 11 year-old. Sixteen percent under two years of age, while 28 percent were between the ages of two and five. Less than 10 percent of the children were 16 years of age or older
The average monthly amount of assistance for TANF recipient families was $392 in FY 2010. Monthly cash payments to TANF families averaged $327 for one child, $412 for two children, $497 for three children, and $594 for four or more children. Some TANF families who were not employed received other forms of assistance such as child care, transportation and other supportive services.

Great old information stats
Isadore you are great with cut and paste. How about finding the TANF stats from 2008 (Obama first year) and the present 2013 TANF stats (6 years of Obama)
This would be interesting to see how the Community Organizer helped. -

Obama was not President in 2008, George Bush was and his policies had just begun the Great Recession, Bush caused effects would burden the Obama administration -

let met tell you why that statistics shows nothing. Its like comparing stat on Americans unemployed from 1929 and 1934 then saying God how people were better off under Herbert Hoover than FDR. in 1929 and 2008 the disastrous effects of conservative Republican policies were at just beginning to be felt, we were on the edge of the maelstrom caused by Bush and the conservative Republicans.Belly35;1576628 wrote:Come on just do your magicial cut and paste with the stats of TANF 2008 compared to TANF 2013

This administration has taken finger-pointing to a level not seen in my lifetime. The whole "my way, or my executive order" mentality of Obama is an unsettling contrast to Reagan, Clinton and others who found common ground and ways to work with a divided/opposition Congress. Obama deserves plenty of blame for the gridlock - his approach tends to be to manipulate public opinion (the "perpetual campaigner") in order to claim some sort of perceived mandate to push his agenda by any means necessary (which doesn't exactly engender the spirit of cooperation).Belly35;1576787 wrote:We just want to compare ....

Oddly enough, I saw a blurb that Rubio is proposing a path to blocking bailouts of insurance companies because of the Obamakare disaster. That could be a horrible strategic misstep that might result in the Dems/media blaming Repubs for "destroying the healthcare industry". -

isadoreThe figures from the Census Bureau on Tuesday highlighted the lingering scars from the 2007-2009 recession and added fresh fuel to debates over government austerity and widening income inequality. It could also renew calls to raise the minimum wage.
Today's data underscore that it is time for Congress to pivot from a focus on austerity to an agenda emphasizing jobs and shared economic growth,"
said Neera Tanden, president of the Center for American Progress, a liberal policy group in Washington
The recovery from the worst recession since the 1930s has been marked by a jump in stock prices to record highs, aided in part by the Federal Reserve's ultra easy monetary policy.
