CalFresh helps individuals and families purchase healthy food by providing a monthly stipend on an EBT card which can be used in grocery stores, online, and at some farmers’ markets. Eligible individuals can get up to $204 per month based on income and allowable expenses, such as housing costs, medical costs, and MediCare costs. Households of two can get up to $374 per month, households of four can get up to $680 per month—monthly benefits go up with each household size and there is no limit to household size. Apply online in as little as 10 minutes at GetCalFresh.org. To speed up your application, please be as complete as possible with the information you provide.
