CalFresh & ABAWD

In a story quoting deputy director Maria Gardner, the SB Independent reports that if the USDA goes through with a proposed plan to restrict states' ability to waive time limits for ABAWDs, 10,000 CalFresh recipients in Santa Barbara County could lose their CalFresh (SNAP) benefits after three months when California’s statewide waiver expires on August 31, 2019. The USDA is expected to make a decision in the coming weeks.
