This will mainly be done through coordination between Tribal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and child welfare agencies.

The award must be used for one or more of these purposes: • For improved case management for families eligible for assistance from a Tribal • For supportive services and assistance to tribal children in out-of-home placements and the tribal families caring for or adopting such children.

• For prevention services and assistance to tribal families at risk of child abuse The Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program focuses on enhancing the economic self-sufficiency of low-income families with children. The child welfare system focuses on ensuring the safety and permanency of children.

Both systems share a common mission of ensuring the well-being of vulnerable children and families, and they often serve the same families. Families benefit from strengthened communication and coordination between TANF, child welfare, and other relevant agencies and programs.

By working together more closely and reexamining the ways that the human, financial, and administrative resources of both systems are used, TANF and child welfare agencies can better meet families’ needs. Improved coordination can also help use resources more efficiently and increase participation. This award is considered a demonstration award.

We expect you to share key insights with the wider Tribal TANF and child welfare community. The overall purpose of the Tribal TANF and Child Welfare (TT-CW) program is to fund projects to coordinate existing child welfare and Tribal TANF services, and other > 1. Review 2.

This award focuses on better coordinating existing services, rather than adding new ones.

It will also create a small learning group where participants can share their experiences and insights with the larger TANF, child welfare, and human services Please see ACF’s Tribal TANF—Child Welfare Coordination Grants webpage for more Principle uses of funding TT-CW awards can be used in three ways, which we have listed here along with examples of activities and services.

• To improve case management for families eligible for TANF , coordinating across TANF programs and child welfare agencies. You could: ◦ Update standard operating procedures to reflect how referrals are made ◦ Develop procedures for joint case management when a family is served by both TANF and child welfare programs. ◦ Change how services are delivered to reduce redundancies between the TANF and child welfare systems.

◦ Cross-train TANF and child welfare staff so they better understand how the • To provide support services and assistance to tribal children in out-of-home placements and the tribal families caring for or adopting such children. Providing these support services may require coordination among agencies. For ◦ Look for supportive services provided by programs beyond TANF or the child welfare system.

Partners could include home visiting programs, childcare programs, or programs providing employment-related activities and services.

You would likely need to establish a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to formalize the connection and outline the roles and responsibilities of the ◦ Carry out a human-centered design process to increase participation, pain points, and bottlenecks that families experience when they try to access services offered by multiple programs. > 1.

Providing prevention services may require coordination across ◦ Develop a tool to gauge a child’s immediate safety and risk of future maltreatment.

You can find background on safety and risk assessments, the importance of appropriateness of assessments, and examples of adaptations in the ACF report “ Child Safety and Risk Assessments in American Indian and Alaska Native Communities . ” ◦ Redesign your intake forms so that a family only needs to complete one form to access both TANF and child welfare services.

This streamlines the process, enables the family to access services more quickly, and increases the likelihood of maintaining family stability. You may also coordinate with employment programs, such as Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act-funded programs or Native Employment Works programs. Additionally, you can partner with home-visiting programs, childhood development programs, or childcare programs.

To build more effective partnerships, you can establish business processes, protocols, partnership agreements, referrals, implementation strategies, or MOUs with these programs. You can also commit staff and TT-CW funds to coordinate services with these partners to fulfill TT-CW program objectives.

Other related uses of funding You may also find other related ways to improve internal processes and programming to strengthen the coordination of TANF and child welfare programs. For example, you might improve mechanisms for sharing information. • This might require legal consultation to make sure that informed-consent documents and data-sharing agreements adequately protect personal information and the people being served.

• It might also require enhancing information technology resources, such as by hiring additional staff or investing in infrastructure to improve data systems. Funds may also be used for community/family engagement. For example, you could propose to conduct specific activities that nurture tribal customs and practices.

You would need to hold these activities to accomplish the goals of the program. You would need OFA approval to hold these, unless it’s in your approved application. > 1.

However, note that: • This use of funds should be limited. • The assistance should be sustainable beyond this grant. • OFA must approve the plan before it is implemented.

For example, you might provide one-time emergency assistance to a family to promote children’s safety, permanency, and well-being. You would need to accompany this assistance with actions to make it sustainable, such as proposing a change in the tribe’s plan for using TANF funds.

You would need OFA approval before providing the # General program requirements Program support and technical assistance ACF will provide a staff member to directly support you and your program. ACF will also hire a contractor to deliver technical assistance to help you make changes to your programs or systems. You are required to work cooperatively with ACF’s staff and technical assistance providers.

Assistance from the staff member and technical provider will be available in person and virtually. In-person activities may include annual meetings and site visits, which may involve observations and interviews with program and partner agencies.

This also includes any diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) initiatives, and any discriminatory equity ideology in violation of a Federal anti-discrimination law. The definition of “discriminatory equity ideology” is in Section 2(b) of Executive Order 14190 of January 29, 2025, which can be found here: 2025-02232.

Indirect costs are costs you charge across more than one project and cannot be easily To charge indirect costs you can select one of two methods: Method 1—Approved rate. You currently have an indirect cost rate approved by your cognizant federal agency. Method 2— De minimis rate.

Monitoring your subrecipient’s activities alone as described in 45 CFR 75. 352 (or, starting October 1, 2025, 2 CFR 200. 332 ) is not a substantive role.

We do not fund awards where your role primarily serves as a conduit for passing funds to other organizations unless that arrangement is authorized by statute. If they do not have one, all subrecipients must obtain a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) through the System for Award Management (SAM. gov).

Subrecipients must meet the eligibility requirements of this NOFO. The salary rate limitation in the current appropriations act applies to this program. You may not use awarded funds to pay a salary at a higher rate than the rate for Executive Level II.

For the Executive Level II salary, please see guidance from the Office of Personnel Management on executive and senior level employee pay . The salary limitation reflects a person’s base salary (including any portion of the salary that is paid for with indirect costs). It does not include fringe benefits or any income the person is allowed to earn outside of the duties of the applicant organization.
