2016 Statistical Report on Public Assistance Programs

2016 Statistical Report On the Operations of New York State

Public Assistance Programs Introduction

This report was prepared in fulfillment of the reporting requirements contained in the Welfare Reform Act of 1997, and was compiled by the Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance (OTDA) with data developed by OTDA and the Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS).1 Although the law requires that this reporting should begin upon the yet-to-be-realized completion of the redesign of the Welfare Management System, we continue to report on as many of the requirements that our current data infrastructure allows.

Except where otherwise noted, the time period covered in this report is July 2015 through June 2016 (referred to as the report year). This time period was selected to allow for the compilation of a year’s worth of data prior to the end of calendar year issuance date of the report.

What follows is a brief summary of current trends in the Public Assistance caseload for the July 2015 to June 2016 time period and a high level summary of the data supplied in the main body of the report.

1 The reporting provisions are codified in §149, Part B of Chapter 436 of the laws of 1997. The full text of §149 is reproduced at the end of the report.

2016 Statistical Report on Public Assistance Programs 1

Recent Public Assistance Recipient Trends Figure 1 illustrates the trend in total Public Assistance (PA) recipients for the July 2015 to June 2016 period. During this time, the total recipient count decreased by 8,488, from 573,450 to 564,962 or -1.5%. This decrease was a reverse of the 2.0% increase observed in the previous report year. The PA recipient count is 12.8% above the September 2008 level, when the caseload reached its modern low.

Figure 1: New York State Public Assistance Recipients

July 2015 to June 2016

Figure 2 shows the recipient count change for the report period for “family” cases as a whole, and for each of this category’s components: 1) recipients in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program (which in turn consists of Family Assistance (FA) and a small number of federally funded Safety Net Assistance (SNA) families where an adult in the case is mandated to drug treatment), and 2) former TANF cases in the SNA program by virtue of exceeding the TANF 60 month time limit or cases that would be TANF except that they are barred from TANF receipt due to their alien status. These cases are referred to as SNA Maintenance of Effort (SNA MOE) cases because expenditures on these cases, while not TANF eligible, count toward a state’s requirement to maintain a certain level of historical assistance expenditures on families in order to access their TANF block grant funds.2

There was a 9,904 or -2.4% decrease in the number of recipients in the family case category, which moved from 411,807 recipients to 401,903. This net decrease reflected a decrease in the TANF category being partially offset by an increase in the SNA MOE category.

2 Note that the family recipient counts include persons in non-disabled two-parent cases, even though these cases were moved into the SNA Non-Maintenance of Effort (SNA Non-MOE) case category in October 2006 for the purposes of avoiding the risk of federal penalty for failure to meet extremely high work participation rates for this group. Such cases are distributed between the TANF and SNA MOE lines on Figure 2 based on the classification the case would have been in had they not been shifted.

Figure 2: New York State Recipients in “Family” (TANF and SNA MOE) Cases


Figure 3 shows the report year trend for the recipient count for “traditional” SNA (Non-MOE) cases, usually referred to as “singles” cases since they consist primarily of one-person adult cases. In this case category, there was a 1,416 or 0.9% recipient increase, from 161,643 to 163,059. The general long-term trend in this caseload has been modestly upward, although some of the increase in the latter part of the report year is likely due to seasonal factors.

Report Summary

This summary, and the report as a whole, is organized by section headings that refer directly by letter to the subsections of the reporting requirements in statute. In some cases, reporting requirements for a particular section overlap with those in other sections. When this occurs, appropriate cross-references will be provided in the body of the report.

Section (a): Applications

Section (a) provides district level and statewide information on the number of case openings and denials, and the reasons for denials, for PA as a whole and for the FA and SNA categories. These numbers are summarized in Table 1.

Table 1: Applications Approved and Denied July 2015 to June 2016

Case Openings Application Denials Total Public Assistance 326,381 263,917 Family Assistance 94,076 83,017 Safety Net Assistance 232,305 180,900

The main reasons for application denials were failure to comply with application requirements, either employment-related requirements (52,192 or 19.8%) or other requirements, such as failure to appear for interviews or failure to provide documentation (128,775 or 48.8%). Denials related to financial issues (income and resources) totaled 36,005, or 13.6% of denials. There were 5,538 (2.1%) denials due to residence issues. A large number of denials (41,407 or 15.7%) fell into a miscellaneous “other” category. Most of the denial codes in this category fail to identify a clear reason for the denial, since the code used requires the caseworker to manually write in a “denial” reason. Other denials in this category include failure to locate the recipient, and cases where PA is denied but emergency assistance is provided.

It is important to note that for the 2014 report year we reexamined the categorizations of both denial and closing codes to ensure all codes were properly classified. This resulted in some reassignment of codes across categories. For instance, voluntary job quits were reclassified to the employment compliance category from the financial category. Thus, the counts and percentages for the denial and closings reason classifications are not directly comparable to those provided in reports previous to 2014.

Section (b): Case Closings and Transfers

Section (b) provides district level and statewide information on the number of case closings, and closing counts by reason for closing, for PA as a whole and for the FA and SNA categories. It also provides district level and statewide information on transfers between the FA and SNA case categories that occurred during the year.

Case closings totaled 303,795 for PA, 85,494 for FA and 218,301 for SNA. Overall, the most common reasons for PA case closings were failure to comply with program requirements not related to employment (134,509 or 44.3%) such as failure to recertify and financial issues (68,588 or 22.6%) such as increased earnings or other income. Failure to comply with employment requirements totaled 20,330 or 6.7%. As was the case for denials, a large number of closings fell into the “other” category, mostly situations where the reason for closing was not clearly defined in the closing code. The “other” category constituted 40,866 or 13.5% of closings. Client requests (15,020 or 4.9%) and residence issues (24,482 or 8.1%) rounded out the closing reasons.


Transfers from SNA to FA totaled 8,700 for the report year. Such transfers can occur for many reasons, including when an adult in an SNA case has a child, a time limited SNA case receives a time limit exemption, or an adult whose cash assistance count causes the case to be time limited leaves the household. Transfers in the opposite direction - from FA to SNA - totaled 17,413. While a portion of these cases move from FA to SNA due to TANF time limits (approximately 560 TANF cases per month reach the 60 month limit, and historically about two-thirds of these cases transfer to SNA), there are other reasons these transfers occur, such as a child “aging out” of TANF eligibility and creating an adult-only case.

Sections (c), (d) and (e): Subsidized Work Activities, Unsubsidized Work Activities and Training and Educational Activities

Section (c) provides data derived from both sample data and system data on the monthly average number of recipients participating in each subsidized or otherwise sponsored work activity exclusive of training and education activities, and the average number of hours engaged in subsidized activities per week. Also included are systems-derived data on the number of non-exempt and exempt adult recipients, with the non-exempts divided into those that are work limited and those that are not, and the exempts divided into three categories, disability/illness, substance abuse and other (with the other category consisting primarily of caretaker situations). For those in work limited status, the duration of that status is provided. The above data is provided for each of the TANF, SNA MOE and SNA Non-MOE case types. Finally, Section (c) includes district level data on the number of persons receiving child care through the New York State Child Care Block Grant by PA status of the person, and federal and state expenditures on work activities, including Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Employment and Training expenditures.

Section (d) contains data on the number of TANF, SNA MOE and SNA Non-MOE recipients participating in unsubsidized employment and the average number of hours engaged per week, and Section (e) contains data on the number of recipients in training and education activities, and the average number of hours engaged per week.

Data Sources for Work Activities

The data source for work activity counts and hours in the activities varies by case category and region. For the rest of state region (all districts excluding New York City) all information on activities and hours regardless of case category is derived from the Welfare Reporting and Tracking System (WRTS), which receives data from the Welfare to Work Caseload Management System (the rest of state system for administering work programs) and the Welfare Management System (WMS, the State’s main eligibility system). For New York City and the State as a whole, TANF and SNA MOE information is derived from the quarterly disaggregated data reports submitted by New York State to the US Department of Health and Human Services for the purposes of reporting and calculating federal work participation rates. These reports contain detailed data on a representative sample of TANF and SNA MOE cases, and are the only source of New York City and thus statewide data on federal work activities. It is important to note that because New York City and statewide activities data are sample-based in the TANF and SNA MOE instances, while activities for non-New York City districts are from systems data, the New York City and rest of state figures in these case categories will not sum to the statewide total. For SNA Non-MOE cases, the New York City data is based on reports submitted by the New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA), and the statewide data is a sum of the WRTS-derived data for the rest of state region and the reports submitted by HRA.

Summary of Section (c), (d) and (e) Data Work Activities An estimated3 monthly average of 5,958 TANF recipients, 3,084 SNA MOE recipients and 57,619 SNA Non-MOE recipients participated in subsidized or otherwise sponsored work activities

3 Work activity numbers are estimates both because the TANF and SNA MOE numbers are derived from sample and because a person may participate in more than one activity.


(including subsidized public and private sector employment, work experience, on the job training, job search/job readiness training, community service, child care provider for a community service participant, substance abuse and other treatment activities). The statewide average hours of participation per week in these work activities were 11 and 13 for the TANF and SNA MOE recipients, respectively. The rest of state SNA Non-MOE recipients averaged 15 hours per week in these work activities (New York City HRA does not report hours in work activities for SNA Non-MOE recipients, as they only report persons in activities if they meet or exceed the hours required). Also, an estimated monthly average of 22,630 TANF recipients, 16,078 SNA MOE and 6,608 SNA Non-MOE recipients participated in unsubsidized employment, with average weekly hours of 26, 28 and 18 (the latter rest of state only) for each case type respectively. An estimated monthly average of 4,313 TANF recipients, 2,845 SNA MOE and 4,546 SNA Non-MOE recipients participated in training or educational activities (including vocational education, job skills training, employment-related education and school attendance). The average number of hours per week participants spent in education and training activities was 16 and 20 hours for TANF and SNA MOE cases respectively, and 15 hours for rest of state SNA Non-MOE recipients.

Exemptions and the Work Limited

A monthly average of 26,000 TANF, 11,347 SNA MOE and 99,873 SNA Non-MOE adults were exempt from work activities (this is exclusive of the work limited persons discussed below). This represents 39.3%, 26.1% and 61.8% of the TANF, SNA MOE and SNA Non-MOE populations, respectively. For the TANF and SNA MOE caseloads, most exemptions fell within the illness/disability category and the “other” category, the latter of which consists primarily of persons exempt because they are a caretaker of a disabled family member, and the exemptions were about evenly split between these categories. Relatively few fell into the substance abuse category. For SNA Non-MOE, most (52,026 or 52.1% of the exempt) fell into the illness/disability category, and an additional 10,092 (10.1% of the exempts) fell into the substance abuse category. The remaining 37,755 (37.8%) fell into “other”, which in the SNA Non-MOE category consists mostly of exemptions due to advanced age.

In order to assess the amount of time recipients remain in work limited (as opposed to exempt) status, we examined all adults coded as work limited at the end of the report period (June 2016) and looked backwards to see the consecutive number of months they had been in that status. Of the 20,155 adult recipients classified as work limited in that month (3,244 in TANF 4,378 in SNA MOE and 12,533 in SNA Non-MOE), 23.0% were classified work limited for 0 to 3 months, 19.5% for 4 to 6 months, 23.6% between 7 and 12 months, and the remaining 34.0% for 13 months or more.

Child Care

During the report period, a monthly average of 126,103 children received subsidized child care under the New York State Child Care Block Grant, 64,826 in PA and 61,277 in the low income category. These figures do not include child care subsidies that are distributed through several demonstration projects for students at CUNY and SUNY schools and migrant farm workers through the NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets.

Expenditures

Federal, state and local expenditures in support of work activities totaled $402,685,395 for the October 2014 to September 2015 period (Federal Fiscal Year 2015), including $159,812,443 in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Employment and Training funds. The Federal Fiscal Year 2015 data is used, as opposed to the report period, to coincide with required expenditure reporting periods.

Section (f): Sanctions

Section (f) provides statewide and district level data on the monthly average number of recipients in sanction status, the type of sanction, the number of recipients that complied, and the average days to compliance in TANF, SNA MOE and SNA Non-MOE cases. The monthly average


number of sanctioned persons for the report year was 18,813, which represents about 6.8% of the 278,500 monthly average number of adult recipients for the period. Most (10,668 or 56.7%) of these sanctioned persons had an employment-related sanction. Each month, an average of 1,441 persons complied with requirements and ended their sanction. The average length of time to compliance for these persons was 170 days. Note that a change to the public assistance employment sanction policy in NYC which started in December 2015 resulted in a substantial reduction in the number of employment sanctions in that region during the report period.

Section (f) also provides district level and statewide data on the number of sanction-related and work activity-related (the two overlap) fair hearings requested, the number of hearings held, and the outcomes of these hearings, for the full report year.4 These data are reported separately for total PA, FA and SNA cases. Readers of this section should note that the numbers reported are based on issues addressed, not hearings per se: more than one issue can be addressed at a hearing, and separate issues addressed at the same hearing can have different outcomes. For the purposes of economy of presentation, Section (f) also contains fair hearings data on work-related issues, since these overlap with sanction-related hearings and follow a similar format. Also included in this section are data on the number and outcomes of administrative disqualification hearings, i.e., hearings initiated by districts. Due to the large number of tables in the fair hearings section, they will not be summarized here. Readers should note, however, that outcome numbers will not sum exactly to hearing numbers since some issues initiated during the report year may still have been pending at the end of the report year, and issues from the previous year may have been resolved in the current year.

Section (g): Case Closings

All data available to meet the case closings requirements of this section were presented in Sections (b) and (c). We no longer present data on transitional Medicaid receipt because some follow-up data is no longer on WMS (our report source) due to changes to the Medicaid program brought on by the Affordable Care Act and the institution of New York’s health care exchange.

Section (h): Substance Abuse Treatment Programs

Section (h) provides the monthly average number of PA persons residing in Congregate Care Level II drug and alcohol treatment facilities during the report period. This information is provided at the district level and by TANF, SNA MOE and SNA Non-MOE case type. For the report year, the monthly average number of persons receiving treatment in these facilities was 5,600, with most (5,462 or 97.5%) in the SNA Non-MOE program. Section (h) also contains data on the duration of spells in these facilities, for persons entering in the period from July to December 2015. For the 6,656 entrants during this period, 14.4% had a spell of one month or less, 13.0% two months, 16.9% three months, 10.8% four months, 9.3% five months and 35.6% six months or more.

Section (i): Pregnancy Prevention Programs

TANF funding for pregnancy prevention programs was discontinued, so those programs are no longer included in this report. Data for non-TANF pregnancy prevention programs can be obtained from the Department of Health.

4 Fair hearings outcomes described in the report are issues affirmed (i.e., the agency’s determination is deemed correct), issues reversed (i.e., where the agency’s determination is incorrect), issues withdrawn, issues correct when made (i.e., where the agency was correct at the time the decision was made, but changes in circumstances require agency action in favor of the client), issues settled (i.e., where the issues are resolved through the Pre-Hearing Disposition process) and a catch-all “other” category.


Section (j): Disabled and Work Limited Recipients

All data available to meet the requirements of this section were reported in Section (c) above.

Section (k): Food Assistance Program The Food Assistance Program is no longer an active program.

Section (l): Domestic Violence

Section (l) reports district level and statewide data for the report year on the number of persons indicating a current danger on their domestic violence screening form, the number of persons whose domestic violence assessments showed a credible threat, the number of persons with a waiver from program requirements as a result of domestic violence, and the number of persons with new waivers granted during the year. Also reported is the number of active waivers broken down by the program requirements that are waived (e.g., time limits, employment, child support, etc.), as well as the average duration of waivers by waiver type. For the reporting period 13,941 persons checked that there was a current domestic violence danger to them on the screening form. During the same period, 7,897 persons underwent a full domestic violence assessment where a credible threat was confirmed, and 7,617 persons were granted waivers.5 For the report period 9,976 persons had domestic violence waivers, including persons whose waivers were granted previous to the report year. These persons had a total of 17,374 active waivers during the report year. The number of waivers exceeds the number of persons with waivers because waivers are specific to the requirement for which the waiver is granted, not a blanket exception from all program requirements. That is, a single domestic violence victim can have more than one waiver, say for instance if the person is exempted from both child support and work requirements. Note also that the number of active waivers for the year, like the number of persons with active waivers, includes those carried over from previous years. Most domestic violence waivers were granted either from the requirement to cooperate in the establishment of child support (10,316), or from the requirement to participate in employment activities (6,255). Waivers active during the period averaged six months in duration.

5 Note that the percentage of domestic violence interviews that result in a credible threat cannot be determined by taking the ratio of interviews that result in a credible threat to the number of persons indicating a current danger. This is because some of the difference between the number indicating a threat and the number where a credible threat was found is due to the client electing not to proceed to the interview stage.

Figures for New York State and New York City for TANF and SNA MOE are based on sample data from the Federal TANF and SNA MOE quarterly disaggregated reports submitted to the US Department of Health and Human Services for the period of July 2015 to June 2016. This is the only source for New York City and thus statewide data on TANF and SNA MOE work participation. Data for all other districts is derived from the Welfare Reporting and Tracking System, which contains all necessary data for this purpose (there is insufficient sample size to develop work activity estimates for non-New York City districts from the federal samples). As a result, New York City and rest of state figures will not sum to the statewide total. Recipients may be participating in more than one activity. Subsidized Private Sector Employment for New York City includes Subsidized Public Sector Employment. For sample-based data the Job Readiness Training, Substance Abuse and Other Treatment activities are included in the Job Search category.

Figures for New York City SNA Non-MOE are derived from work participation reports provided by the New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA). The HRA reports do not include hours in activities. All other SNA Non-MOE data is derived from the Welfare Reporting and Tracking System. Due to rounding in the calculation of averages, the total averages may not equal summation of the individual averages. Dashes signify that the cell is not part of the reporting data set for that activity and region.

Data sources. For rest of state counties, child care payments in the Welfare Reporting and Tracking System database are extracted retrospectively for each month. Low Income Day Care children are those with a case type of 20 (Medical Assistance), 24 (Medical Assistance - Family Health Plus), 31 (Non-PA Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), or 40 (Services) and Services Type Suffix R (Low Income Day Care). Public Assistance Day care children are those with a case type of 11 (Family Assistance), 12 (Safety Net FP Non-Cash), 16 (Safety Net FNP Cash), 17 (Safety Net FNP Non-Cash), 19 (Emergency Assistance to Families), 32 (SNAP - Mixed Households), or 40 (Services) and Services Type Suffix S (PA Day Care) or E (Emergency Assistance to Families). For New York City, a monthly data file of all cases with child care authorizations from the Administration for Children's Services (ACS) and the Human Resources Administration (HRA) is forwarded to OCFS. New York City case types are estimated using the designation ACS (low income) or HRA (PA) as provided by New York City. Numbers of children receiving subsidized child care includes subsidies funded under the NYS Child Care Block Grant as well as supplemental child care subsidy funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.

A monthly average of 722 additional child care subsidies were also distributed through several demonstration projects for students at CUNY and SUNY schools and migrant farm workers through NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets. These additional subsidies are not included in Table 17.

Section (e) Education and Training Work Activities Footnotes

Figures for New York State and New York City for TANF and SNA MOE are based on sample data from the Federal TANF and SNA MOE quarterly disaggregated reports submitted to the US Department of Health and Human Services for the period of July 2015 to June 2016. This is the only source for New York City and thus statewide data on work participation. Data for all other districts is derived from the Welfare Reporting and Tracking System, which contains all necessary data for this purpose (there is insufficient sample size to develop work activity estimates for non-New York City districts from the federal samples). As a result, New York City and rest of state figures will not sum to the statewide total. Recipients may be participating in more than one activity.

Figures for New York City SNA Non-MOE are derived from work participation reports provided by the New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA). The HRA reports do not include hours in activities. All other SNA Non-MOE data is derived from the Welfare Reporting and Tracking System.

Due to rounding in the calculation of averages, the total averages may not equal summation of the individual averages. Dashes signify that the cell is not part of the reporting data set for that activity and region.

SN Non-MOE activity counts for Vocational Education may include referred for enrollment, conciliation and referred for noncompliance/sanction counts.
