Option A. Aid to Families with Dependent Children is the scheme that provided financial assistance to the single mothers who are divorced or widowed.

Initially AFDC was given to only widow mothers as they had a genuine reason as unforeseen death but gradually this grant was given to single mothers with dependent children. This scheme encouraged mothers to get babies outside wedlock and divorce cases increased.

Later Americans considered that women must be disqualified who get assistance by unfair means and based on thorough evaluation of their background it was again implemented by AFDC.
