About this resource

Summer EBT is a grocery assistance program designed to support families in purchasing food for their school-aged children when school is not in session. Each summer, families receive a single payment of $120 on an EBT card for every eligible child to help with grocery expenses. Any unused Summer EBT benefits will expire 122 days after they are issued. A helpline is available for inquiries regarding general questions, eligibility verification, application status, and EBT card issues.

Intake Procedure: Families can apply for 2026 benefits at any time by submitting an application.

Fees: There are no fees associated with this program.

Who can use this

Families may automatically qualify for Summer EBT if a child is approved for benefits through an application or if the child attends a school that is part of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) or School Breakfast Program (SBP) and meets income criteria, including SNAP allotment above $0 or Medicaid programs with income at or below 185% of the Federal Poverty level based on household size. If the household meets the income criteria for free or reduced-price meals and the child is enrolled in a participating school, they may need to apply.
