TANF applications and casework are usually handled at a local or county human services office, even though the program's rules are set at the state level. That means the office nearest you is typically tied to your county rather than the closest city on a map — some rural counties even share a single regional office. Every state page on this site lists offices grouped by city, and links to that state's dedicated application guide, so you know exactly where to start.
