Applications Sought for TANF Data Collaborative Equity Analysis Awards

The Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) invites state and local TANF agencies to apply for the TANF Data Collaborative Equity Analysis Awards (HHS-2024-ACF-OPRE-PE-0043). The awards will provide funding for agencies to build their data analytic capacity through the completion of an equity-focused data analysis project using TANF and other administrative data, with the goal of improving TANF agency programming and, ultimately, individual and family outcomes. During the 36-month project period, award recipients will participate in training and technical assistance led by MDRC and its TDC 2.0 partners using a “learning by doing” approach. Support will include applied data analytics training, one-on-one coaching from technical and equity experts, instructional webinars, annual cross-site convenings, and peer learning to answer equity-related questions that matter to each agency.
