Ala. Admin. Code r. 660-5-2-.02
The Alabama Department of Human Resources is designated by the Governor as the single state agency to administer Title XX of the Social Security Act ( P.L. 93-647). Title XX, which consolidated social services provisions for low income persons previously funded under Titles IV-A and VI of the Social Security Act, became effective October 1, 1975, and federal funds were allocated annually on the basis of population to reimburse states for seventy-five percent (75%) of the cost of providing social services. In August 1981, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981 changed Title XX to a Social Services Block Grant, consolidated Title XX Social Services Training and Day Care into one block grant and reduced federal funding.
