35A-3-301. Purpose -- Legislative intent. (1) The Legislature finds that: (a) it is in the public interest to fundamentally alter the state's cash assistance program for needy families with children; (b) employment improves the quality of life for parents, children, and individuals by increasing family income, developing job skills, and improving self-esteem; and (c) the purpose of the cash assistance provided under this part is to assist a parent client to obtain employment that is sufficient to sustain a family, to ensure the dignity of those receiving assistance, and to strengthen families. (2) The Legislature recognizes that even with assistance, some clients may be unable to attain complete self-sufficiency.
