The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offers this grant to demonstrate and evaluate methods for reducing or preventing summer food insecurity and hunger among children. Known as the Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer for Children (SEBTC) demonstrations, this initiative tests a household-based approach for delivering nutrition assistance to low-income children. The grant aims to combat summer hunger via electronic benefits. While the award covers food benefits, no specific dollar ceiling exists for start-up or operational costs. State agency budgets must be necessary and reasonable to operate these crucial demonstration projects, covering all participating entities.
