AI Summary
This bill seeks to expand the definition of acceptable education or training activities for the purpose of meeting work-related requirements for recipients of Transitional Aid to Families with Dependent Children (TAFDC). It requires the Department of Transitional Assistance to conduct a screening to identify needs, barriers to employment, and eligibility for exemptions before denying or reducing benefits for non-compliance with work-related requirements. The bill also allows for extensions of TAFDC benefits in certain circumstances, such as when the recipient is making substantial progress in an education or training program.
