The Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (SEBT) program helps reduce hunger and food insecurity by providing eligible school-aged children with benefits to buy groceries during the summer months when school meals aren’t available. 👦👧 Who’s Automatically Eligible? • Students ages 6–17 as of August 1, 2024 and, • Students who received SNAP, KTAP, or Kinship Care for at least 1 month since July 1, 2024 📝 Need to Apply? If your student hasn’t received SNAP, KTAP, or Kinship Care since July 1, 2024, you’ll need to apply starting October 1, 2024 at: 🔗 https://KYSEBT.ky.gov/ or through https://kynect.ky.gov/benefits/ 💳 How Benefits Are Received: If you’re already receiving benefits, SEBT will be added to your existing EBT card. Otherwise, a new card will be mailed to you. 🛒 What Can You Buy? Almost any grocery item—except hot, ready-to-eat foods. SEBT does not cover tobacco, alcohol, pet food, or non-food items.
