The Arkansas TANF Program is called TEA
The TEA program is federally funded and provides time-limited cash assistance to needy families with (or expecting) children. In addition, TEA furnishes parents with work training and other supportive services they need in order to attain permanent self-sufficiency. The TEA program also provides assistance to children being cared for by non-parental guardians.
We list the local DHS County offices (Department of Human Services) below. They can provide assistance in completing applications for TEA and schedule interviews to check on eligibility.
