Hunger Free with CalFresh
Latest CalFresh Program Updates
CalFresh/SNAP (commonly know as Food Stamps) is our biggest, most efficient tool in the fight against hunger. It enables individuals and families in need to purchase food from local grocers and farmers markets by providing extra money for groceries each month.
San Diego Hunger Coalition is here to make
CalFresh enrollment as easy as possible.
If you’re someone who needs food assistance or a community partner helping people enroll in CalFresh, we’ve got toolkits, resources, program updates, and more!
Apply for CalFresh:
Individuals are encouraged to apply for CalFresh online using BenefitsCal, over the phone by calling 2-1-1, or at a community-based organization.
