Due to COVID-19, CalFresh is waiving interviews if all documents are complete with the correct information. March and April benefits are being raised to the maximum benefit for all households no matter what you qualified for originally.
If you are living on a limited income, buying groceries may be hard at times. Thankfully, Medi-Cal members may also qualify for the CalFresh program which is California’s food assistance program. Through this program you could qualify for up to $192 a month per household member.
