WorkFirst—Purpose.

(1) What is the WorkFirst program?

The WorkFirst program offers services and activities to help people in low-income families find jobs, keep their jobs, find better jobs, and become self-sufficient. The program links families to a variety of state, federal, and community resources to meet this goal. When you enter the WorkFirst program, you will be asked to work, look for work, and/or prepare for work.

(a) Parents and children age 16 or older who receive cash assistance under the temporary assistance for needy families (TANF) or state family assistance (SFA) programs; and
