Description

Introduction For impoverished families in the United States, the social safety net consists largely of "in-kind" assistance, such as food stamps or housing vouchers, with more limited availability of cash welfare. Of all anti-poverty programs in the United States, the Food Stamp Program is the most commonly used, reaching about five times as many households as Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), the nation's most widely available cash welfare program. Approximately five and a half million people in the United States received TANF in fiscal 2005, compared to nearly twenty-six million people receiving food stamps.
