As of my last update, approximately 350,000 individuals in Connecticut were receiving some form of public assistance or welfare benefits. This includes programs such as Temporary Family Assistance (TFA), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and various health care assistance programs. For the most accurate and current statistics, it is advisable to check with the Connecticut Department of Social Services or relevant government resources.
About 2.8% of Connecticut's population received welfare benefits, such as TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families), as of 2020.

Welfare is very helpful to those that are in need. Many people need Government Assistance to help them get back on their feet. Because of welfare many less fortunate people can eat and have a place to live every day.
