The Nutrition Policy Institute is pleased to share the 2025 CalFresh Healthy Living data briefs, highlighting the vital contributions of local health departments and their community partners to California’s nutrition and physical activity promotion efforts during federal fiscal year 2025.
The California Department of Public Health is the largest of four state agencies implementing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education—or SNAP-Ed—in California, receiving over half of the state's total SNAP-Ed funding. They in turn fund all 61 local health departments to plan and deliver locally tailored CalFresh Healthy Living programming. The data presented in this compilation therefore represents only one part of CalFresh Healthy Living’s overall statewide impact—but a critical one. Together, local health departments advanced community well-being statewide, reaching 2.7 million low-income Californians through nutrition education, partnerships and multi-sector collaborations, and efforts to create healthier environments where Californians live, learn, work, and play. This set of five data briefs describe the intervention approaches, settings, and audiences reached by local health departments statewide, as well as measured outcomes from assessments and evaluations.
