The State Hub Roadmap: CDSS CalFresh and CalWORKs Streamlining Verifications
The State Hub Roadmap outlines a strategy to streamline eligibility verification for CalFresh and CalWORKs by integrating electronic data systems.
Developed by Social Interest Solutions for the California Department of Social Services (CDSS), this roadmap evaluates the current verification process for CalFresh and CalWORKs, highlighting inefficiencies caused by complex policies, county-level variations, and reliance on manual and paper-based documentation.
The report proposes a phased implementation of a State Verification Hub to centralize and automate data-sharing, reduce administrative burdens, and improve access to benefits. Recommendations include enhancing existing systems, expanding access to electronic data sources, and developing a statewide verification hub to simplify and expedite eligibility determinations.
