Summer EBT is a new program that helps families buy food for school-age children during the summer! Each eligible child in your family will receive $120 on his or her own Summer EBT card. For example, if you have three eligible children in your home, you will receive three separate cards in three separate envelopes. Visit The Summer EBT website at ar.gov/summerebt to find an interactive eligibility flowchart.
If the flowchart shows that you need to apply for Summer EBT, either print a copy and complete by hand or complete the application online and print it out. Then, email the completed application to SummerEBT@dhs.arkansas.gov or drop it off at your local DHS county office. Paper copies are also available at your local DHS county office.
The earliest that cards will be mailed out is July 10, 2024.
