The Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) is reaching out to students and families who are eligible for the Summer EBT program but never received their card because of an incomplete address.
CDHS will send a text message to these students and families. To receive their benefits, recipients must respond via email with their corrected information by Sept. 30.
The text will come from the number 267325 and will read:
English: “Our records show your child is eligible for Summer EBT benefits. Please email your name, child’s name, & current address to cdhs_sebt_supportcenter@state.co.us by 9/30/2025.”
Spanish: “Según nuestros registros, su hijo es elegible para recibir beneficios de EBT de verano. Envíenos un correo-e con su nombre, el nombre de su hijo y su dirección actual a cdhs_sebt_supportcenter@state.co.us antes del 30/09/2025.”
This summer, CDHS provided Summer EBT cards to nearly 450,000 students. The program gives a onetime payment of $120 on a preloaded card to help families buy healthy food.
This text message campaign is part of the CDHS’s ongoing effort to make sure all eligible students receive their benefits.
If you believe you should have received a Summer EBT card and did not, please contact the Summer EBT Support Center by emailing cdhs_sebt_supportcenter@state.co.us before the Sept. 30 deadline.
