Food insecurity is one of the biggest hurdles faced by senior and disabled persons living on a fixed income. As of June 1, 2019 senior and/or disabled individuals receiving Social Security Supplemental Income (SSI) may be eligible to qualify for CALFRESH. Reporter Eric Knabe has more information about who qualifies…
Reach Out Morongo Basin will be hosting an outreach by FIND Food Bank to help individuals check eligibility and enroll in the CALFRESH program at the Twentynine Palms Senior Center, 6539 Adobe Road, on Monday, June 10, from 9:30 to 11 a.m. For eligible individuals, your SSI benefits will NOT be reduced or eliminated if you decide to apply for CALFRESH. If someone in your home already receives CALFRESH, you can add members who have SSI or help them get their own benefits. For more information call Reach Out Morongo Basin at 760-361-1410.
