Summer P-EBT

The Summer EBT program provides grocery benefits to families with school-aged children in our community. Last year, Summer EBT helped over 395,000 kids in Kentucky get the healthy food that they usually enjoy while they’re in school! 

·         Summer EBT is for school-aged children in households that are at or under 185% of federal poverty guidelines. 

·         Families receive $120 per eligible school-aged child for groceries (on an existing EBT card or new Summer EBT card)

·         Most eligible families will be automatically enrolled, but some will need to apply.

·         In CEP school(s), families who aren’t receiving SNAP, KTAP, income-based Medicaid or Kinship Care may need to apply. (This is new, not all CEP students will receive a card- the ones who are not directly certified from the above programs, will have to complete a S-EBT application with DCBS)

·         Families can check here if they need to apply, or if they should receive Summer EBT automatically: feedingky.org/sebteligibility

*Non-CEP schools, if your student qualified directly (through the above DC programs), they would receive benefits automatically. If your household completed a Free/Reduced application for meal assistance, DCBS has requested that data from districts, so you should not need to complete the S-EBT application. 

 

If you have any questions contact DCBS (S-EBT program distributers) at:  (855)509-8959.
