The TANF Initiative for Parents (TIP) was born out of the Child Welfare
Reform effort, to help new parents with children under 12 months old who
are
on Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) improve their parenting
skills and encourage their child's well-being and healthy development.
TIP offers parents the opportunity to choose between having a TIP
representative come directly to their home to work one-on-one with them or
participating in community sessions at their local One-Stop Career Center.
Or they can choose a combination of the two.
Through its extended support network, TIP creates a training plan that
best
suits each parent's situation, providing them with guidance on good
nutrition, available medical and child care services, resume writing, job
interview skills and more. Parents are also given the opportunity to share
their experiences with families like themselves and are referred to other
services they may need.
