POM Template (136.38 KB)
Each state and tribal organization that intends to administer the Summer EBT Program beginning in 2024 must submit to their respective FNS regional office a final POM not later than Feb. 15, 2024.
In states with multiple Summer EBT agencies, the coordinating Summer EBT agency is the primary point of contact for the Summer EBT Program and is responsible for the complete and timely submission of the POM. However, the POM must be developed in cooperation with all state Summer EBT agencies and be reflective of the plans and administrative funding needs of both. For tribes, the administering agency is responsible for its program’s POM. For the purposes of this document, the term ‘Summer EBT agency’ includes all administering agencies within a state or tribe unless otherwise specified.
The final POM must:
- Address all the requirements in this template, and
- Be approved by FNS before the Summer EBT agency may draw federal food benefit funds for the fiscal year.
