Hundreds of Stanislaus residents losing CalFresh food assistance due to federal rules

About 720 residents in Stanislaus County have lost CalFresh benefits, as of Nov. 1, because of new federal work requirements. It represents a small percentage of the 85,000 county residents receiving CalFresh food assistance , but the number of those affected will grow as their eligibility comes up for renewal in the months ahead. The county’s Community Services Agency said 2,100 people could lose the assistance if they don’t meet the work requirements under H.R. 1, the federal bill that made changes to the nation’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. CalFresh is the name for SNAP in California. A CSA spokesperson said Tuesday the agency has conducted eligibility assessments for CalFresh recipients through October, and more people are expected to lose benefits each month as additional work requirement assessments are done between November and June, 2027. “Stanislaus County remains committed to supporting community members who rely on CalFresh benefits ,” the CSA said. “When residents lose access to food assistance, it is a concern.” The county will continue to monitor the effects of H.R. 1 on residents and work closely with community partners to help connect eligible individuals and families with available food resources and support services, the agency said.
