Greetings, Dooly County 21st C.C.L.C. parents,
Due to the level three severe weather threat and potentially hazardous road conditions, the Dooly County School 21st C.C.L.C. after-school program will not meet today. Instead, students are asked to use their regular method of transportation home at the end of the regular school day. Dooly County 21st C.C.L.C. after-school is taking this precautionary measure to maintain the safety of all students and staff.
Thank you!
P-EBT Benefits DHS Issues Additional 2022 Benefits to Eligible Children
The Georgia Department of Human Services’ (DHS) Division of Family & Children Services began issuing a third round of 2021-22 P-EBT benefits in December, this time covering the 2022 summer months for eligible children. Families with SNAP-enrolled children ages 0-5 and 5 who turned 6 during the school year, as well as K-12 students who participated in the National School Lunch Program, are eligible for the one-time $391 benefit issuance.
SNAP recipients will have the benefits loaded onto their current head of household’s EBT card.
Children who are no longer receiving SNAP will have the P-EBT benefits loaded to their head of household’s previous EBT card, provided the state can match the child’s identity from a previous year.
Eligible non-SNAP students will receive a P-EBT card or, where applicable, have the benefits loaded onto a prior P-EBT card if they received benefits in a past P-EBT issuance.
If this is the first benefit issuance to an eligible child, a new card will be provided
