Montana to Give One Time PEBT Benefit to Families
Montana families with children ages 0 to 17 will receive a one time Summer Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer payment of 391 dollars per eligible child. About 32 000 kids will be affected starting Wednesday. The program is funded under the U S Department of Agriculture and originated in 2020 under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act. Governor Gianforte said the funding will ease gas and food costs as inflation remains high. Department director Breerton called the program a targeted boost for families as the new school year begins.
