This article reports the results of a survey of State Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) rules regarding the treatment of unrelated cohabitors in households containing AFDC units. We examine State treatment of cash and in-kind contributions by cohabitors and find that the AFDC grant is usually not affected in the cohabitor makes in-kind contributions toward food and shelter expenses of the household. However, the grant generally is reduced if the cohabitor contributes cash to the AFDC unit unless the cash is for shared household expenses. In addition, a few States have specific policies toward cohabitors that are not based on initial evidence of cohabitor contributions.
本文报告了一项关于对有受抚养子女家庭的国家援助（AFDC）规则的调查结果，该规则涉及包含AFDC家庭单位的家庭中无亲属关系的同居者的待遇。我们研究了各州对同居者现金和实物贡献的处理方式，发现如果同居者为家庭的食品和住房费用提供实物贡献，AFDC补助通常不会受到影响。然而，如果同居者向AFDC家庭单位提供现金，补助通常会减少，除非该现金用于家庭共同开支。此外，一些州对同居者有特定政策，这些政策并非基于同居者贡献的初步证据。
