Data sharing to boost CalFresh access

The Department of Social Services can identify and pursue data sharing with other state and local agencies for CalFresh. Data are used to improve program operations, grow enrollment, measure results, and connect people to health and anti-poverty services. The department leads this work and must name a senior official to oversee it. That official reports to the Director on Sections 18901.59 and 18901.58. The law does not add new funding or list a start date.
