CalWORKs was established in 1997 by Assembly Bill (AB) 1542 as a cash aid program
for low income families who require assistance meeting their basic needs. CalWORKs
can assist single or two-parent families who are receiving Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families (TANF), and those in transition off welfare, achieve long-term self-sufficiency
through education, employment, and training programs to help families get jobs. Child
care, transportation, work expenses and counseling are also available for families
in work activities. There is a four year time limit for adults but the children can
remain on aid if otherwise eligible under the Safety Net program.
