CalFresh Significantly Cuts Poverty and Child Poverty in California
Poverty Rates Under the California Poverty Measure, 2023
The grouped column chart shows poverty rates for all Californians and children. For each group, one bar shows what poverty would have been without the support to CalFresh, and another bar compares the poverty rate inclusive of CalFresh. The two bars together for each group highlight the decrease in poverty as a result of this food assistance.
