Franklin County Department of Job and Family Services - PRC Program - Franklin County Department of Job and Family Servi

Details: The Prevention, Retention, & Contingency Program (PRC) provides short-term monetary assistance to eligible families within Franklin County. The Prevention, Retention, and Contingency (PRC) Program is designed to provide benefits and services to low-income families to help with essential supports needed to move out of poverty and become self-sufficient. These supports include limited non-recurring, short-term, crisis-oriented benefits and ongoing services that are directly related to the four purposes of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)program which do not meet the federal definition of assistance. Non-recurring, short-term assistance addresses discrete crisis situations, not to exceed four months in duration, and is dependent upon federal, state, and local funding. The PRC Program is a tool to encourage families to retain employment, prevent dependency, and promote family stability within the context of community priorities and needs. PRC makes it possible to meet the needs of low-income families through supportive services and/or short-term cash-related payments so that they do not need OWF cash assistance. Specifically, PRC is defined as: Prevention: Benefits and services may be provided to an assistance group to prevent them from reliance on and divert them from ongoing cash assistance by helping them through the presenting crisis. Retention: Help assistance group members retain employment and, thereby, achieve or maintain self-sufficiency. Contingency: Provide for contingent needs by helping assistance groups with one-time urgent problems that when left unattended could threaten the safety, health, or well-being of one or more family members and could result in a family’s need for long-term public assistance
