New York's Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) program will help families purchase food for their school-age children during the summer. Families will get $120 in food benefits for each eligible child. 

Eligible children will receive Summer EBT food benefits on an EBT card. Most children will be automatically eligible for Summer EBT and do not need to do anything to enroll, however, some children may need to apply. For more information, please click here or read below.
