Welfare - As introduced, clarifies that the department of human services must provide applicants with a written notice of temporary assistance eligibility determinations. - Amends TCA Title 4 and Title 71.

HB 2353 would require Tennessee's Department of Human Services to provide applicants for temporary assistance (welfare benefits) with a written notice of their eligibility determination, rather than a general notice. This change directly affects individuals applying for welfare programs by ensuring they receive a clear, written record of their eligibility status. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 71, Section 71-3-107(f), by replacing the word "notice" with "written notice" to specify the required format. The policy aims to increase transparency and clarity in the welfare application process for applicants.
