Children are eligible for P-EBT benefits if their school is closed due to coronavirus and they are eligible for free or reduced-price school meals. Children who pick up "to-go" meals in their community or receive CalFresh benefits are still eligible for P-EBT benefits. Children who get free or reduced-price school meals because they received CalFresh, MediCal, CalWORKs, or Foster Care during the school year DO Not need to apply for P-EBT benefits. These households will receive their P-EBT card automatically in the mail between May 12, and May 22.
