Week 9 Discussion: Continue Your Discussion 

For this discussion, discuss the underlying philosophy of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF).

Here are some ideas to get you started:

• Does TANF represent a residual or an institutional view of welfare?
• What led to the failure of the Family Support Act and the JOBS program?
• How do the approaches to social policy and welfare that were enacted in the 1980s and 1990s still impact social workers and their clients today?
• Reflect on what, if any, evidence there was of considerations that would today be related to diversity, equity, and inclusion and how that might be impacting current social work policies and practices.

Guidelines

• Your writing: Each post should show courtesy and be succinct, professional, well written, and organized, using proper writing mechanics, grammar, and punctuation.
