The ACT Time Limits pilot consisted of four features designed to emphasize the temporary nature of cash assistance and the need for participants to obtain work to gain independence: (1) time limits for benefit receipt, (2) transitional Medicaid and child care benefits, (3) changes to Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) eligibility rules, and (4) a Personal Responsibility Agreement (PRA); only the first two of these features were tested to determine their effectiveness.
