Here's something regarding the Ohio's Works First program.
Ohio Works First (cash assistance) is temporary assistance available to families to help pay for immediate needs while the adults of the family prepare and search for jobs.
Ohio Works First is a work program. Families receive assistance by spending a minimum of 20 to 35 hours per week (depending on circumstances) working, in school, or in some cases, volunteering at a location that will help them gain work experience for the future. Adults who are unable to find a work or volunteer activity will work closely with Community Link to remove any remaining barriers to finding employment.
Benefits are distributed through the EPPIcard, which can be used like a debit card, or through direct deposit into the individual’s bank account.
Families may be eligible for the program for up to 36 months, which may be non-consecutive. Ultimately, Ohio Works First allows families to work toward financial stability.
Ohio Works First is also known as cash assistance or Federal Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF)
Do I Qualify?
Eligibility for Ohio Works First is based on the family’s income and the number of people living in the household. Minor children and women who are at least six months pregnant and in an approved living arrangement may also be eligible.
Typically, to qualify for cash assistance a family must meet the “gross monthly income test,” which means that their monthly income (both earned and unearned) before taxes is below a certain level. The gross monthly income for a family of three is currently $773, but this increases annually.
The best way to find out for sure if you qualify is to apply.
There are certain individuals that are not eligible. That list includes:
Fugitive felons
Probation/parole violators
Individuals convicted for fraudulent misstatement of residence in order to receive benefits.
Individuals that receive Supplemental Security Income
Families that receive adoption assistance payments or federal, state or local foster care maintenance payments
Other individuals may also not be eligible, but are not included in the list above.

Ouch, $773 a month isn' t much. Some people make more than that in a week. Ohio Works First (cash assistance) is temporary assistance available to families to help pay for immediate needs while the adults of the family prepare and search for jobs.

Conrad.. I support the idea that people should work to take care of themselves. However, we can ask someone to work for food. My position is train him and give him a job.
My friend I work every day. Sometimes 15 hours per day .

First it was set up so the people who Job & Family Services deemed were qualified to receive them.Now there are some people who figure why should they bother look for work since the program is in place.
Giving out free handouts only touches the surface of why that particular just happens to be down on their luck.
For some reason there is a stigma that just because someone receives stamps that they have to be lazy.
