need links on california and america welfare statistics?

Question

how many people in california that are healthy and america are on welfare? age?

Answer 1

I don't think statistics on what you want are collected. You can find categories such as Medicaid or TANF but not why the person qualifies. That is Medicaid will provide well baby care to poor families and TANF will provide cash assistance to someone who may be poor because of ill health. You can get some numbers at
