Summary
Existing law provides for the California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) program, under which each county provides cash assistance and other benefits to qualified low-income families and individuals. Under existing law, an individual is not eligible for aid under the CalWORKs program if he or she is violating a condition of probation or parole imposed under federal law or the law of any state. Existing law allows a county welfare department to provide specified information to a law enforcement officer of a CalWORKs applicant or recipient if the applicant or recipient is violating a condition of probation or parole imposed under state or federal law. This bill would authorize the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation or a local sheriff's department to notify a county welfare department that administers CalWORKs of persons released on probation or parole who have been prohibited from residing with a minor as a condition of release. The bill would authorize a county welfare department that administers CalWORKs to notify law enforcement of anyone who has been reported to the department pursuant to these provisions who applies for benefits under the CalWORKs program if the department has reason to believe that the applicant is residing with a minor as a condition for eligibility to receive benefits under the CalWORKs program.
