OFA is seeking information on intersections and partnerships between TANF programs and the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) program. Can you provide any examples of promising practices or model collaborations between TANF and the CCDF?
A representative from the Virginia Department of Social Services (VDSS) would like to know if any other states or tribes deem virtual currency countable for TANF eligibility and if so, how are they implementing this? If VDSS were to do this, they would need to update their state program guidance to reflect how it would be countable. In addition, their state's cash management system would need to be updated to automatically convert virtual currency to US dollars when program participants indicate receipt of income with virtual currency.
