COVID-19缓解措施促使许多州修改其福利计划的管理。各州采取了不同的政策，以应对在满足计划要求方面的困难，以及增加的财政需求。此数据集记录了2020年3月至2020年12月COVID-19大流行期间对贫困家庭临时援助（TANF）计划所做的更改。作者创建了这个数据集，作为一项更大规模研究的一部分，该研究考察了COVID-19大流行期间TANF政策变化对健康的影响。TANF是美国低收入家庭的主要现金援助计划，但福利往往以工作要求为条件，如果个人被认为不符合要求，就可能被取消。COVID-19大流行期间的结构性因素使满足这些标准变得更加困难，因此一些州放宽了规则并增加了福利。该数据集捕获了24种类型的政策，这些政策是国家TANF计划制定的，哪些州制定了每一项政策，政策何时生效，以及在适用的情况下，政策何时结束。这些数据可用于研究TANF政策变化对各种健康和方案成果的影响。
COVID-19 mitigation measures prompted many states to revise the administration of their welfare programs. States adopted policies that varied across the U.S. to respond to the difficulties in fulfilling program requirements, as well as increased financial need. This dataset captures the changes made to Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) programs during the COVID-19 pandemic, from March 2020 through December 2020. The authors created this dataset as part of a larger study that examined the health effects of TANF policy changes during the COVID-19 pandemic. TANF is the main cash assistance program for low-income families in the U.S., but benefits are often conditional on work requirements and can be revoked if an individual is deemed noncompliant. Structural factors during the COVID-19 pandemic made meeting these criteria more difficult, so some states relaxed their rules and increased their benefits. This dataset captures 24 types of policies that state TANF programs enacted, which of the states enacted each of them, when the policies went into effect, and when applicable, when the policies ended. These data can be used to study the effects of TANF policy changes on various health and programmatic outcomes.
