Summer EBT
Summer EBT is here. Summer EBT helps families buy food during the summer months when school is not in session.
Eligible families will receive $40 per month per child ($120 total) to purchase groceries with funds placed on an EBT card.
Families are eligible if their school-aged children participate in SNAP, TANF or Medicaid, or attends a school that offers the National School Lunch or School Breakfast Program and they qualify based on income.
To receive benefits, make sure your school has a benefits form or household income application on file along with your current address and parent/guardian information. EBT cards will be mailed by the Colorado Department of Human Services.
To learn more about Summer EBT, families can visit the Colorado Department of Human Services website at https://cdhs.colorado.gov/summer-ebt.
