Proposed Information Collection 

Activity; Comment Request 

Title: Understanding the Intersection 

Between TANF and Refugee Cash 

Assistance Services. 

OMB No.: New Collection. 

Description: The Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF), U.S. 

Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS) is proposing data 

collection activities as part of a project 

to understand the intersection between 

Temporary Assistance for Needy 

Families (TANF) and Refugee Cash 

Assistance (RCA). The goal of this 

project is to help ACF better understand 

how the variety of systems that assist 

refugees collaborate to promote common 

goals of self-sufficiency and 

employment, and how refugees’ 

experiences might differ depending on 

the structure of the state (or local) 

program arrangements. To achieve this 

goal, this study aims to document what 

states are doing to help refugees gain 

self-sufficiency; if and how states are 

integrating RCA, TANF, and associated 

services to better meet the needs of 

refugees; and what data is collected 

currently, or might be collected in the 

future, to better understand refugee 

resettlement services and suggest future 

areas for inquiry. 

The proposed data collection 

activities described in this notice will 

collect data about state policies and 

practices; how TANF, RCA, and 

associated services are provided; the 

respective roles of the various agencies 

and organizations in serving 

participants; how the agencies and 

organizations integrate services 

internally and/or collaborate with other 

organizations; refugee populations 

served; approaches to addressing the 

particular barriers refugees face; 

promising practices and strategies for 

assisting refugees; gaps in services; local 

labor market conditions; and 

experiences of refugees accessing 

services through these programs. 

The proposed information collection 

activities include: 

(1) The survey of state refugee 

coordinators will be administered to 

state refugee coordinators in each state 

and the District of Columbia. The survey 

will collect information about state 

policies and practices. 

(2) The four site visit interview guides 

will collect information about how 

TANF, RCA, and associated services are 

provided; the respective roles of the 

various agencies and organizations in 

serving participants; how the agencies 

and organizations integrate services 

internally and/or collaborate with other 

organizations; approaches to addressing 

the particular barriers refugees face; 

promising practices and strategies for 

assisting refugees; gaps in services; data 

maintained by programs serving 

refugees; and local labor market 

conditions. 

(3) The focus group guide will collect 

information from program participants 

about the services they received how 

they were delivered, their experiences 

attempting to achieve self—sufficiency 

within a rapid timeframe, and the 

challenges they have faced. 

Respondents: Individuals receiving 

RCA, TANF, and related services; State 

Refugee Coordinators; Managers and 

staff at local TANF offices; local 

resettlement agency staff; communitybased organization staff providing 

services to refugees; staff operating 

alternative cash assistance programs for 

refugees such as Public/Private 

Partnerships(s) and Wilson/Fish 

programs (if different from the local 

resettlement agency); and staff from 

other programs providing employability 

and social adjustment and cultural 

orientation services to refugees.
