temporary assistance

Temporary Assistance (TA) is a government program that provides financial support to individuals or families facing economic hardship. It aims to help them meet basic needs like food, shelter, and clothing while working towards self-sufficiency. The assistance is usually time-limited and may include additional support services such as job training or counseling. Eligibility is determined based on income, household size, and specific circumstances. The goal of Temporary Assistance is to offer temporary relief and help recipients stabilize their situations, ultimately enabling them to become financially independent.
