Maximum Family Grant (MFG), CalWORKs

Effective 9/1/97, MAP does NOT include a child born to a family which has received AFDC/CalWORKs continuously for 10 months. However, MBSAC is increased to include the MFG child. In the CalWORKs/AFDC Program, an MFG child is considered to be both “eligible for” and “a recipient of aid”.

The MFG rule has NO impact on the determination of federal eligibility for Foster Care. The 7/16/96 AFDC rules apply. THE MFG CHILD IS INCLUDED IN THE AU.
