About this resource

Summer EBT is a program designed to offer grocery benefits to families, enabling them to purchase 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. For any inquiries regarding general questions, eligibility, application status, or EBT card issues, a helpline is available.

Application Process: For information, please visit the website. Families can apply for benefits for 2026 at any time by filling out an application, which can be submitted via mail or email.

Fees: There are no associated fees.

Who can use this

  • Families may automatically qualify for Summer EBT if their child has been approved for benefits through an application or if they attend a school participating in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) or School Breakfast Program (SBP) and meet specific income criteria.
