This fiveminute video describes the TANF Data Collaborative (TDC) 2.0, an effort to help state and local agencies that administer the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program expand the routine use, integration, and analysis of TANF and other administrative data to strengthen evidenceinformed decision making. TDC 2.0 builds on the TANF Data Innovation (TDI) project, with a specific focus on examining equity within the TANF program to improve program administration and outcomes for families.

TDC 2.0 is sponsored by two offices in the federal Administration for Children and Families: the Office of Family Assistance and the Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation. Led by MDRC, TDC 2.0 partners include Actionable Intelligence for Social Policy at the University of Pennsylvania, Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago, the Coleridge Initiative, and Blu Lewis.
