Vermont Summer EBT Program

Summer EBT is a program that helps families get groceries during the summer break when school meals aren't available.

Many families will automatically get Summer EBT benefits if they already get other benefits. But some might need to apply. If your family already gets benefits like 3SquaresVT, you'll be enrolled in the Summer EBT program.

If your family isn't automatically enrolled but might be eligible, you can apply easily online when applications open in August.

If families qualify and already have an EBT card, their Summer EBT benefits will be added to it. If they don't have a card but qualify, they'll receive a new card.

Families automatically enrolled will be notified by a letter in the mail in July. 

Families that qualify will receive $120 per eligible child for healthy summer foods.
