Description
This brief examines 25,100 new adult recipients who entered TCA between state fiscal years 2011 and 2014. We followed these new recipients through March 2020 to compare new recipients who eventually exceeded 60 months of receipt to new recipients who did not. We found that disabilities and the local unemployment rate increased the probability of exceeding 60 months, while employment during the first year of benefit receipt and educational attainment decreased the probability.
