Welfare in California

Welfare in California consists of federal welfare programs—which are often at least partially administered by state and county agencies—and several independent programs, which are usually administered by counties.

Some of the largest California-specific programs are:

MediCal, the California Medicaid program
CalFresh, the California Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP / Food Stamp program)
CalWORKs, the California Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program
