Restaurant Meals Program - Vendor Information

The Riverside County Department of Public Social Services (DPSS) administers a Restaurant Meals Program (RMP)

that allows homeless, elderly and disabled persons to use their CalFresh benefits to buy low-cost prepared food at participating eateries. The RMP is an essential tool towards helping Riverside County end hunger.
