Grocery Card Assistance

Grocery card assistance is designed for students who are experiencing food insecurity and unable to meet their needs through the CalFresh Assistance Program and Franco’s Market. Please speak with a social worker in the Falcon’s Nest to see if you meet the criteria to request a grocery card.   
 
Not connected to a social worker? Please complete the Falcon's Nest Referral Form to request assistance for food insecurity or just visit the Falcon’s Nest.  
 
Also, we would like to encourage all students to connect with our CalFresh Outreach team at  calfresh@cerritos.edu to determine their CalFresh eligibility for these food benefits. 
 
Grocery card requests are processed at various times of the month and may take 2 weeks from the date of request to the date of distribution.
