Description: Many families, despite need and eligibility, have their federal cash assistance benefits terminated for failure to complete program recertification paperwork in a timely fashion. This project aimed to ease the psychological frictions by designing and sending an instructional reminder letter based on behavioral insights to families recertifying for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). This pre-analysis plan describes our design of a randomized controlled trial (n = 3,539) in Washington, DC.
