Temporary Assistance for Needy Families in New Jersey

New Jersey × 93.558 is a TANF join, not a county welfare map

This page pairs CFDA 93.558, TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE FOR NEEDY FAMILIES, with New Jersey place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $2,234,179,572.51 on 6 awards. The join is HHS's Temporary Assistance for Needy Families listing crossed with a New Jersey location field, not New Jersey's entire HHS book and not a count of TANF families. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking, and not a claim that 6 awards equal that many TANF families, cash grants, or county boards.

SNAP and child-care block grants remain on other CFDA numbers unless they also carry 93.558. Correlation between this obligation sum and local need statistics is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. New Jersey (NJ) excludes New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. A New York TANF award is another cell. Place of performance as New Jersey locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $2,234,179,572.51 in the state treasury.

Six HHS rows, one more than Illinois or Massachusetts TANF

Mean obligation is about $372.36 million if $2,234,179,572.51 were divided evenly across 6 lines. That ratio is a quotient of two packet facts, not a published typical award. Six records is the thickest TANF award file among Illinois, Massachusetts, and New Jersey here, still a thin block-grant list. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations. It is not a census of TANF families, cash grants, or county boards.

Six awards are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Temporary Assistance For Needy Families in New Jersey for the stored table. North Jersey, South Jersey, and the Shore are unpublished. Six awards are not six county welfare boards. The $2,234,179,572.51 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.
