Here Is Her Testimonial…
“I want to say thank you to Access Cal for helping me become a U.S. citizen. They helped me with the application, with classes, and with a mock interview. The online classes are organized and I like that the teacher waits for students to log in to start the class. The teacher is very patient with us. I was able to join all classes but when I missed one, I was able to make up class the next day. I was given two mock interviews one a week before and the other one a day before my interview, which helped me go to my interview with confidence. They helped me be ready for my interview.”

Learn About the Medi-Cal Expansion
The expansion to individuals aged 50 and over was included in Assembly Bill 133 (Chapter 143, Statutes of 2021), which amended Welfare and Institutions Code section 14007.8. For nearly a year, DHCS held monthly advocate and county workgroup meetings to implement this expansion.
