If you currently receive CalFresh (EBT) benefits, please be aware that there may be a delay in the distribution of benefits for November 2025. This delay is a result of the ongoing federal government shutdown.
CalFresh is funded by the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). During the shutdown, federal funding to the State of California for these benefits may be temporarily paused. Please click the blue box above if this delay will prevent you from having sufficient food this November.
