What is the difference between the CalWORKs and CARE programs?
MJC’s CARE (Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education) program is a supplemental component of EOP&S (Extended Opportunity Programs & Services). The student or the child(ren) must be receiving TANF to be eligible for CARE as opposed to CalWORKs where the student must be the TANF recipient. Also, CARE requires full-time enrollment; CalWORKs does not. To find out more information about CARE click here.
