The Work Incentive Nutritional Supplement (WINS) Program
The WINS program provides a ten-dollar ($10) supplemental food assistance benefit to working families who are receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits, called CalFresh in California, but not receiving CalWORKs cash assistance. Eligibility criteria for the WINS program include a net income of less than 100% of the FPL, at least one work-eligible individual who is working enough hours in subsidized or unsubsidized employment to meet TANF work requirements, and a child under age 18 in the household. The WINS benefit meets purpose #2 and #4 of TANF. WINS is a TANF/MOE/Non-MOE state funded food supplement benefit. WINS is not a cash payment. Two-parent cases, as well as Transitional CalFresh cases, are non-MOE funded.
CalWORKs Non-Custodial Parent (NCP) Services
CalWORKs provides WTW services to non-custodial parents of aided children who wish to receive WTW services and engage in activities. To be eligible for CalWORKs WTW employment services, the NCP must have established legal parentage for a child who is: 1) receiving aid in a CalWORKs Assistance Unit (AU); or 2) ineligible for aid (e.g., due to receipt of Supplemental Security Income/State Supplementary Payment [SSI/SSP]) and living with a parent or caretaker receiving CalWORKs assistance. NCPs are treated the same as exempt volunteer participants for purposes of assignment of WTW activities and services. NCP employment services are funded with non-maintenance-of- effort (non- MOE) State General Fund from the Single Allocation (SA) and they will not be included in the calculation of the TANF work participation rate (WPR).
The Approved Relative Caregiver (ARC) Program Foster children/nonminor dependents (NMD) who are ineligible for federal foster care payments can receive ARC funding when living with an approved relative.
