Subject	Aid to families with dependent children programs--Oklahoma.
Purpose	Lawmakers designed the TANF program, in part as a mechanism to end long-term and cyclical dependency on welfare. The TANF program focuses on strong work requirements and a lifetime five-year assistance limit.; However, little systematic study has been conducted to determine what is required to successfully exit the welfare system permanently. In order to gain the information needed, the Oklahoma Department of Human Services Welfare Reform Task Force recommended a study to identify major challenges deterring recipients from achieving self-sufficiency.
