What should I do if I lost my Summer EBT card?

If someone loses their Summer EBT card, it is important to take immediate action to prevent any unauthorized use. The first step is to report the lost card as soon as possible. This can generally be done by visiting the Massachusetts Department of Transitional Assistance website, where individuals can find specific instructions on how to report the loss. Once reported, a replacement card can be requested, and this process may be outlined on the same website. In the meantime, it is essential to keep track of any food or benefits that could be affected. Checking the balance of the existing account may also provide important information during this period. After receiving the new card, it is advisable to monitor the account regularly for any unexpected transactions.
