What is P-EBT?
Due to COVID-19 related school closures, children who are eligible for free or reduced-price meals will get up to $370.50 in extra food benefits. These benefits, called Pandemic-EBT, or P-EBT, are intended to help families in Maryland purchase food while schools are closed. Each eligible child will receive a P-EBT card in the mail automatically. If families are currently enrolled in SNAP through the Maryland Department of Human Services, funds will be automatically added to the existing SNAP account.
If you need to complete a meal benefit application, please contact the local school system below.
NO application is necessary if:
Your child is currently enrolled in the Free and Reduced Meal (FARM) program. All current FARM students will automatically receive P-EBT benefits.
Your child is enrolled in a
Community Eligibility Provision (CEP)
school or community.
CEP schools are listed
here.
CEP communities include the City of Baltimore, Dorchester County and Somerset County. All public school school students in the City of Baltimore, Dorchester and Somerset County will automatically receive P-EBT benefits.
