CalFresh (formerly Food Stamps)
CalFresh is available to individuals and families with low incomes. Citizens and most legal residents are eligible. Undocumented immigrants are usually not eligible, but can apply for their children who are legal residents or U.S. citizens. Even if you have applied for CalFresh before, you should try again. New legislation was passed to increase access and you may be eligible now even though you were not before. Please click here for Income Limits
