Regulation Authority:

Title XIX of the Social Security Act
R.I. Gen. Laws § 40-5.2-1 et seq.
2023 RI State Budget - H7123A

Purpose and Reason:

The Rhode Island Works Program (R.I. Gen. Laws Chapter 40-5.2-1 et seq.) establishes the legal basis for a welfare to work program to assist needy families to prepare for, accept and retain employment with necessary supports, as quickly as possible, and is the law through which the Federal assistance program, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, is available to families in Rhode Island who meet program eligibility criteria. This Direct Final Amendment is being filed to finalize the Emergency Rule that is currently in place which implements the Legislative changes that were signed by the Governor with the 2023 Rhode Island State Budget. These changes were effective July 1st, 2022.
