In a resolution passed unanimously at their June 3 meeting, the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors proclaimed June as Santa Barbara County CalFresh Awareness Month. The resolution noted the tremendous impact of CalFresh—a program administered by the Santa Barbara County Department of Social Services (DSS) that helps low-income households buy food—in reducing hunger in our community. The meeting was attended by representatives of both DSS and our anti-hunger community nonprofit partners, who help raise awareness and enrollment for CalFresh.
