Enhancing TANF Faith-Based and Community Partnerships: Essential Readiness Factors and Capacities of TANF Agencies and FBCOs.

This paper is designed to deepen the conversation by identifying the key readiness factors, overall capacities, and practices of both TANF agencies and FBCOs that have led to successful partnerships in eight communities. By examining important elements of these partnerships, we hope to provide guidance to other TANF agencies and FBCOs interested in collaborating to improve outcomes for families and low-income individuals.
