The Arizona Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Cash Assistance program in Tempe is dedicated to offering crucial temporary cash benefits and supportive services to the most vulnerable children and families in Arizona. Our mission is to help these families meet their fundamental needs, ensuring their safety and well-being while guiding them toward self-sufficiency. We provide essential services including temporary cash assistance and various supportive resources to navigate challenging times. Applications can easily be submitted through our online application center, by mailing or faxing to a Department of Economic Security office, or you can request a paper application by phone. While our physical offices are currently closed to the public due to COVID-19, we remain committed to serving our community through online and phone support, making sure that help is accessible to those who need it most.
