Summer EBT - S-EBT

S-EBT Online Application

Thank you for your interest in S-EBT.

Applications for 2026 benefits are open. If your application is approved, benefits will be issued in the summer of 2026. If your application meets federal rules, your child may qualify for free or reduced-price school meals in the Fall of 2026. If not, you will need to complete your school's meal application.

IMPORTANT: If you applied for and got S-EBT benefits between July 1, and August 31, 2025, you should automatically get S-EBT again in summer 2026. If not, we will let you know, and you will need to apply for 2026 S-EBT benefits.
