This grant, offered by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), aims to demonstrate and evaluate methods for reducing food insecurity and hunger among children during summer. It specifically funds the Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer for Children (SEBTC) demonstrations, testing a household-based approach to deliver nutrition assistance to low-income children. Authorized by the 2010 Agriculture Appropriations Act, this initiative rigorously assesses intervention effectiveness. While the primary award covers food benefits, the grant also provides for necessary and reasonable start-up and operational costs for participating state agencies and entities. The goal is to establish effective, sustainable strategies for summer childhood nutrition.
