I'm a single mother and I've heard that the new welfare reform bill will affect me. How will it affect me?

The new welfare reform law is intended to encourage people to find work, but it also has some provisions that could have negative impacts on families like yours. For example, if you receive TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families), you may be required to participate in job training or other activities designed to help you find work. If you don't comply with these requirements, your benefits could be reduced or even terminated. You should contact your local Department of Social Services for more information about how this affects you specifically.
