Health Insurance & Food Benefits

Free assistance navigating health insurance and food benefits.

Overview

Our certified enrollment counselors can help you enroll in Medi-Cal health insurance or receive subsidized health insurance through Covered California.

We also offer assistance applying for CalFresh, the state food benefits program (also known as SNAP or food stamps). Our goal is to help you understand your options and to support you as you navigate the enrollment process.

Important Notes

  • Medi-Cal enrollment is available year-round, which means you can still apply outside of Open Enrollment through Covered CA or your local county social services office.

  • If you have a Qualifying Life Event you may still enroll in health insurance outside of Open Enrollment through Covered CA, as long as you enroll within 60 days of the event.

How to Access

Currently, all appointments are via telephone due to COVID-19.  

If interested, please fill out an assistance request form. We will call or email you within a week to answer your questions and/or set up an appointment. 

You can use the Shop and Compare Tool to see what health plan(s) you may qualify for before requesting our service.
