3011.3 Curing a Full Family Sanction
This policy applies to TANF cases that have been sanctioned as a result of not meeting the TANF requirements for employment and training. 1. Mandatory Employment And Training Participants Must Work With An Assigned Vendor. To cure the sanction clients must work with an assigned employment and training vendor. The vendor will develop a plan with the client that specifies the weekly activities and hours the client must complete to be in compliance with the TANF program. Based on family composition clients are generally required to complete twenty (20), thirty (30), or forty (40) hours per week of approved activities. 2. Clients Must Complete Four (4) Consecutive Weeks Of Participation. To cure the Full Family Sanction clients must complete and submit required verification of their required activities and hours to the employment and training vendor. They must complete four (4) consecutive weeks of full participation. For the TANF program purposes a week is a seven (7) day period which begins on Monday and ends on Sunday. 3. The TANF Case Reopens At The Beginning Of The Four (4) Week Cure Period. When the TANF family has remained technically and financially eligible for TANF during the cure sanction period, once the requirement of four (4) consecutive weeks of full and verified participation has been completed the TANF case will reopen effective the first day of the four (4) week cure sanction period. 10 DE Reg. 706 (10/01/06) 18 DE Reg. 143 (08/01/14)
