Medi-Cal Working Disabled Program

 

The California Working Disabled (CWD) program is designed to encourage and support people with disabilities to participate in the workforce while still qualifying for Medi-Cal's health insurance benefits. Because of this program, people with disabilities don’t have to choose between work and Medi-Cal; they can have both. Also, contrary to the common assumption that being on Medi-Cal equals poverty, people in California's Working Disabled program can earn an income and build their assets.
