ENROLL IN
CALFRESH

Through our CalFresh Outreach Program, we assist low-income families and individuals in applying for additional food assistance.

Golden State Advantage EBT Card

WHAT IS CALFRESH?

Benefits are received monthly on a plastic EBT card (like an ATM or debit card), and can be used to buy food in grocery stores and farmers markets that accept EBT. You can buy more fruit, vegetables and other healthy foods for the whole family! The amount of benefits you can receive is dependent on your family size, countable income, and monthly expenses. CalFresh is not a welfare program, it is an entitlement program funded by the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture).
