CalFresh
CalFresh benefits stretch food budgets, allowing individuals and families to afford nutritious food, including more fruit, vegetables and other healthy foods. The amount of benefits a household receives is dependent on household size, countable income, and monthly expenses, such as housing and utilities.
If qualified, a student can receive up to $281 per month to purchase food. CalFresh does not affect financial aid.
