In December 2022, the federal government authorized a new permanent, nationwide Summer EBT program – also known as SUN Bucks – to support children who lose access to free and reduced-price school meals during the summer months. School is out for tens of thousands of students in Washington state. With children and teens home for the summer, several districts and cities throughout the region have set up programs to ensure kids can still receive a free meal during the next couple of months.
