OPINION OF THE COURT
Denman, J.
Petitioners in both actions are recipients of Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) as well as recipients of various educational grants from the Federal and State Governments. The question presented is whether the amounts by which such educational grants exceed the actual costs of education and education-related expenses may be considered by social service agencies as an available resource in determining need for assistance under the AFDC program. We hold that such excess grant funds may be used to offset AFDC assistance.
