INLAND EMPIRE – (INT) – More than a quarter-million Riverside County households are being offered improved access to food, housing, health coverage, and workforce programs.

The new BenefitsCal website will replace the existing C4Yourself.com.

Beginning September 27th, Riverside County residents can visit benefitscal.com to apply for CalFresh, CalWORKs, Medi-Cal, General Aid/General Relief, and the Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants (CAPI). Having an e-mail address is the only requirement. All existing C4Yourself customers will be able to use their username and password to login into BenefitsCal for the first time.

“This has been a 20-year effort in the making to unify all 58 California counties under one statewide system,” said Allison Gonzalez, assistant director of Riverside County Department of Public Social Services (DPSS). “It is exciting to know this is here. We look forward to providing our customers with the fastest and most efficient service possible.”
