圣迭戈县监事会批准全州首创「安全网桥梁计划」下一阶段：为CalFresh与Medi-Cal中断居民提供短期支援
加州圣迭戈县监事会10月27日批准「安全网桥梁计划」（Safety Net Bridge Program）进入下一阶段，为因联邦营养与医疗政策变化而丧失或中断 CalFresh（粮食券）或 Medi-Cal（医疗补助）福利的居民提供短期支持。该计划为全州首创。
据圣迭戈县新闻中心发布，这项计划由医疗服务提供方、咨询委员会与社区成员共同参与创建，目的在于当居民的粮食与医疗福利出现中断时，先以短期支援接住，避免家庭在重新申请与衔接期间断粮、断药。
CalFresh 与 Medi-Cal 是加州低收入居民最主要的两项福利：前者按月发放购粮补助，后者承担医疗费用。近期联邦层面营养与医疗政策调整，圣迭戈县内部分居民面临福利丧失或中断，县监事会此次批准推进下一阶段，将支援对象与衔接安排进一步落地。

San Diego County Board Approves Next Phase of First-in-State Safety Net Bridge Program for Residents Losing CalFresh or Medi-Cal
San Diego County's Board of Supervisors in California voted on October 27 to move the Safety Net Bridge Program into its next phase, providing short-term support to residents who lose or face interruptions in CalFresh food benefits or Medi-Cal health coverage amid federal nutrition and health policy changes. The county says the program is the first of its kind in the state.
According to the county news center, the program was created together with health care providers, an advisory committee and community members, and is designed to catch residents when food or medical benefits are interrupted, so families do not go without food or medication while reapplying or transitioning.
CalFresh and Medi-Cal are the two main benefit programs for low-income Californians — the first provides monthly food assistance and the second covers medical care. With federal policy adjustments affecting some San Diego County residents, the board's approval moves the next phase of short-term bridge support forward.
