Summer EBT: Cash for Kids When School’s Out

New Jersey’s Summer EBT program is dropping $120 per child to help families afford groceries during the school break — reaching up to 681,000 kids. Automatic payments go to families already on SNAP, TANF, Medicaid, or school meal programs, but others must apply through their school district. Eligible kids include those relying on school meals, foster youth, homeless children, and Head Start participants. Cards arrive by end of June and expire 122 days after loading — don’t let them sit idle. Each child can only receive this benefit from one state per summer.
