NOTICE:

Connecticut passed new legislation requiring DSS to spread out SNAP benefit issuance dates throughout the month rather than concentrating them in the first few days. Read up on the changes that start March 1.

DSS benefits have changed due to the federal budget reconciliation bill (H.R.1). Find out how it will impact you on our website, which answers questions about work requirements and exemptions for SNAP and HUSKY (Medicaid).

Summer EBT - S-EBT

How Will I Get My S-EBT Card?

  • If your child currently gets SNAP or TFA benefits or got P-EBT benefits on an EBT card, benefits will be added to that EBT card. 
  • If your child only has Medicaid, an S-EBT card will be sent in the Head of Household’s name to the address we have on file. 

  • If your child is not currently on any DSS programs, an S-EBT card will be issued in the Head of Household or the child’s name to the address on file with their school. 

  • If your child does not have a mailing address, the S-EBT card will be issued to their school. The school will notify you to pick up the card.

SAVE YOUR CARD! EACH YEAR, S-EBT BENEFITS WILL GO ONTO THE SAME CARD!
