CALFRESH benefits outreach returns to Island Pacific West Covina on June 2

After a very successful Calfresh outreach in West Covina last May 18, the  Department of Public Social Services (DPSS) Team  returns on Saturday, June 2 to accept applications and answer questions regarding this program. The DPSS, in its continuing efforts to promote and increase participation to the Calfresh programs have partnered with Island Pacific Supermarket to reach out to the Filipino American community.

The CalFresh Program helps to improve the health and well-being of qualified households and individuals by providing them a means to meet their nutritional needs. In California, the monthly CalFresh benefit is transferred to the household's Golden State Advantage Card, known as Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card, and is issued when the household 's CalFresh case is approved.

Please mark the dates on your calendar and go to your nearest Island Pacific Supermarket locations to apply for CalFresh benefits. They will be  available to answer and accept applications from 9:00 am- 2:00 pm. For more information, visit their website at http://dpss.lacounty.gov.
