With the end of California’s COVID-19 State of Emergency on February 28, 2023 and the end of the federal Public Health Emergency (PHE) for COVID-19 on May 11, 2023, the California Health & Human Services Agency (CalHHS), along with its Departments and Offices, is providing Californians with information about various programs and services affected, including flexibilities and other policy changes.
In California, COVID-19 response efforts remain a public health priority even though the State of Emergency is ending. The state’s
SMARTER Plan, which looks at where the state has been and draws on lessons learned from our collective experiences, will ensure a level of operational preparedness to support communities and appropriately respond to future outbreaks.
