California’s Summer EBT program, known as SUN Bucks, is returning in 2026!
Beginning this summer, you can buy more food for your child with California SUN Bucks, also called Summer-EBT. SUN Bucks works just like CalFresh and provides families $120 per child for the summer months of June, July and August. Some children will be automatically enrolled in the program. Others will need to apply through their school district.
