Review the progress by the 42 MFP grantee states (including the District of Columbia) that are actively transitioning MFP participants.

During the second half of 2013, states transitioned 5,485 new enrollees, bringing the total number of people that had ever transitioned to the community through MFP to 40,693 at the close of 2013.
