Actions
The Polls Are Still Open: Vote for the Freshy Awards
The 2022 Freshy Award nominations are in and voting has begun! The winners, to be selected based on your votes, will be announced at the Virtual CalFresh Forum on March 9th. The Freshy Awards honor the actions of individual Californians and organizations from across the state who have worked diligently in the last year to improve CalFresh.
Tell Budget Leaders We Need Food4All!
We are requesting an ongoing budget investment that builds on the allocations made in the Governor’s budget proposal to expand CFAP nutrition benefits to all Californians with low income currently ineligible for CalFresh solely due to their immigration status. No exceptions. No exclusions.
