Transitional Aid to Families with Dependent Children (TAFDC) is a state and federally funded program which provides cash assistance to families with children and pregnant women in the last 120 days of pregnancy, with little or no assets or income.
Total state spending on the TAFDC grant payments has also dropped over time. Between FY 1995 and FY 2013, total spending on cash assistance dropped by 68 percent due to the significant loss in the value of the grant coupled with a sharp decrease in the caseload after welfare reform in the mid-1990s (see chart below).
