Summer EBT Card
https://www.nj.gov/summerebt/using-benefits/
-
If you did not receive your Summer EBT card because your address was incorrect, you must contact your school district to update the address for the student. If your child does not attend an NSLP/SBP-participating school, or is home-schooled, but your household participates in SNAP, TANF, income-eligible Medicaid, or Foster Care, and your child is between the ages of 6-16 years old, you must contact your local county social service agency to update your child’s address.
-
If your Summer EBT card has been lost, stolen or damaged, it is important to immediately cancel your card. You can cancel your card by using the ConnectEBT app on your mobile device; online at EBT Connect Client Portal or by calling 1-800-997-3333. This will “freeze” your card so no one can use your benefits. You may be asked to verify your identity.

There may be a $1.50 fee for replacement Summer EBT cards
