Can single males get cash aid or food stamps in california?

I am 18 years old and basically homeless currently living with other people. I have a job and am paying rent but want to get out on my own. Its hard to find a job and i need some assistance. Is there any programs out there that can help me in the state of california?

Yes, you can apply for, "General Relief Assistance," at your county Department of Social Services. You maybe eligible for a small monetary benefit and food stamps, but the assistance is temporary. The temporary monetary assistance is generally for those unemployed and to give them help until finding a job, however, you may qualify for food stamps.

Employable applicants must register for work, must apply for unemployment benefits, (if eligible,) and are limited to a time limit of 3 months of assistance in a 12 month period, whether or not the months are consecutive.

Unemployable applicants must obtain verification of his/her disability, apply for SSI/SSP and/or any other disability benefits determined by the department.

Your young, able bodied, and already have a job and a place to live, (albeit temporary.) Considering the conditions of the economy right now and the problems specific to California, you will likely have a difficult time qualifying.

Yes. Contact the Department of Social Services in the county where you live.
