Summer Electronic Benefit Transfer Program for Children — CFDA 10.646

Summer EBT obligations at $5.60 billion

USAspending.gov records $5,595,200,193.29 in obligations under CFDA 10.646. Three hundred one awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $18.6 million per award — consistent with state and territorial grant actions rather than millions of household-level rows. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical benefit per child.

The assistance-listing title is SUMMER ELECTRONIC BENEFIT TRANSFER PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN. CFDA 10.646 is the identifier. Other nutrition listings, if tagged under other CFDA numbers, are not included in the $5.60 billion.

USAspending.gov records the $5,595,200,193.29 obligation stock for CFDA 10.646 together with 301 awards, 84 recipients, and 47 states. Keep Summer EBT on 10.646 when quoting these four facts. Outlays remain a separate column.

Eighty-four recipients, 47 states

Eighty-four recipients share 301 awards, or about 3.6 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $5.60 billion evenly would assign about $66.6 million per recipient. State agencies are the unit this kind of listing usually names; the packet does not list the 84.

Forty-seven states in the geographic count is narrower than the 52–56 range on many nutrition packets. That reports how many state labels appear on 10.646 awards in this extract. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award count is not a child count

Among nutrition listings, 10.646 is mid-sparse: 301 rows against $5.60 billion. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of children served.” Recipients (84) are the organizational headcount; awards (301) are stored assistance rows.

The packet does not report caseloads, card issuances, or grocery redemptions. Citing 301 as children or households would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states.

Obligations versus benefit cash

The $5.60 billion is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Summer EBT awards — are not in the packet. A state agency can show a large obligation stock while benefit issuance follows a summer calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

What the 10.646 tables omit

The Summer EBT hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a child roster, not a retailer file, and not a redemption tape. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $5,595,200,193.29.

Place-of-performance on 47 states is a coding field. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not benefits already loaded on cards.

Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards. The four-fact citation for CFDA 10.646 is the obligation stock on this extract, together with the award, recipient, and state counts already named above. Do not convert those figures into outlays, and do not treat award count as a service census. Start on the program page for CFDA 10.646 before ranking this listing against other assistance rows. Obligations remain the reporting concept on this extract; outlays are not stored in the packet facts. Award count is a record count; recipient count is the organizational headcount; the state figure is a coded-jurisdiction count from USAspending.gov. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the obligation stock; this page does not publish remaining balances. Internal links on this overlay point to the program page, the all-programs index, and agency rollups. SpendingVault indexes USAspending.gov assistance awards; it does not convert this CFDA into a performance scorecard. If a number you expected is missing, the usual cause is a different reporting concept than obligations on assistance awards.
