Summer EBT is a new food benefit program to help families buy groceries for their school-aged children each summer. If you qualify, you will get $120 for each eligible child to spend on food. Families use an Oregon EBT card to buy groceries. School-age children are eligible if: • Your family receives SNAP, TANF or Medicaid (OHP), or • Your child goes to a school with the National School Lunch (NSLP) or School Breakfast Program (SBP), and your family’s income meets the requirements. Most families will automatically get Summer EBT. Some families may need to apply. • If your family already receives SNAP, TANF or OHP, your child will be automatically signed up. You don’t need to do anything. Children in foster care also are signed up automatically. • If your child is not automatically signed up and may be eligible, you’ll need to apply. Starting in July 2024, families can: • Check your current Oregon EBT card account to see if Summer EBT benefits were added. • Look for a letter in the mail that confirms your child’s eligibility. • If you don’t get Summer EBT by mid-July and think your child is eligible, you may need to apply. Contact the Call Center or go to sebt.oregon.gov for help. You can apply until September 2.
