FNS Documents & Resources

This memorandum provides information to assist Indian Tribal Organizations (ITO) in preparing to implement Summer EBT.

The Consolidated Appropriations Act 2023 authorized a permanent, nationwide Summer EBT program beginning in 2024. The Act requires FNS to promulgate interim regulations within a year of the Act’s enactment. Interim regulations are effective upon publication and FNS will accept comments on the interim rule to inform subsequent rulemakings. 

This document provides information to states to assist in the development of state plans to operate Pandemic EBT for school children and children in child care.

This memorandum permits sponsors to consider children 18 years of age and younger who participate in the Job Training Partnership Act  program as categorically eligible for the Summer Food Service Program.
