Torres Martinez Tribal TANF, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, is a social services organization that provides assistance to Native American families with children. We offer a 5-year program with a foundation in educational incentives and work opportunities, supported by temporary financial assistance, leading to self-sufficiency. Our doors first opened in 2001 with 1 small office in Thermal, CA, and have since grown to 6 regional offices spanning L.A. and Riverside counties. Special focus is put on traditional values and cultural awareness as we serve the Native community with a determination to support, educate and guide our clients along the path to self-sufficiency.
