State Acts to Improve CalFresh Access for Older Adults

October 19, 2020 • Jared Call
The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) CalFresh Branch submitted a formal request to the USDA Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) to waive the annual periodic report for CalFresh households enrolled under the state's Elderly Simplified Application Project (ESAP). This important policy change will reduce administrative barriers and improve access for over 500,000 households statewide.
