About this resource
Summer EBT is a program designed to assist families in purchasing groceries for their school-aged children when school is not in session. Each summer, families receive a one-time payment of $120 on an EBT card for every eligible child to help with food costs. Any unused Summer EBT benefits will expire 122 days after they are issued. A helpline is available for inquiries regarding general questions, eligibility, application status, and EBT card issues.
Intake Procedure: Applications for 2026 benefits can be submitted at any time.
Fees: There are no fees associated with this program.
Who can use this
- Families may qualify for Summer EBT automatically if their child is approved 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 specific income criteria.
