Support along the way

CalWORKs (California Work Opportunity and Responsibility for Kids) is California’s Welfare-to-Work program for families with children. We partner with the Department of Public Social Services to support your education, training, and job skills.

Through your designated Welfare-to-Work agency, assistance may include books, supplies, transportation, and child care. Our team can help you understand your next steps.
