Description

The County Adult Assistance Programs (CAAP) provide cash assistance and employment services to low-income San Franciscans with no dependent children, including those who cannot work and immigrants/refugees. The program issues monthly benefits (on the first of the month) on an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card that can be used at various stores like a bank card and funds can be withdrawn in the form of cash at various surcharge-free ATM machines throughout San Francisco. A person on parole in another county may be eligible for CAAP when the county of responsibility allows the client to live in San Francisco and the client intends to live in San Francisco. A person on probation in another county may be eligible for CAAP only if the client is allowed to reside in San Francisco by his Probation Officer. Note, you may be eligible to receive benefits while working and/or attending vocational training, or classes for GED/ESL/High School Diploma.
