   • 2024 September 23, Sam Adolphsen, Paige Terryberry, “WITH REFORM, TANF CAN LIFT AMERICAN FAMILIES OUT OF DEPENDENCY”, in Foundation for Government Accountability‎, page 3:

Moreover, waste, fraud, and abuse are occurring, undermining the program and diverting already limited resources. The lack of attention to these issues by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which administers TANF at the federal level, adds to the program’s inefficiencies.
