This collaboration brings a modern, mobile-first platform to the Summer EBT program, streamlining application management, participant communication, and program administration in a secure, easy-to-use system.

Built with tribal and government programs in mind, the platform supports seamless participant engagement and ensures critical benefits are delivered without unnecessary delays.

The solution went live in just six weeks, enabling the Choctaw Nation to quickly begin serving families ahead of the summer season.

Key Benefits Include:

  • Improved Efficiency: Centralized dashboards, configurable workflows, and automated processes minimize administrative burden and free up staff time.
  • Streamlined Participant Experience: Families can easily apply for Summer EBT benefits, access support resources, and communicate directly with staff through a secure, mobile and web application.
  • Real-Time Communication: Built-in two-way messaging enables rapid, personalized communication between program administrators and participants, reducing confusion and increasing engagement.
  • Data-Driven Insights: Real-time reporting & analytics offer valuable visibility into program performance, allowing teams to track application progress, monitor participant engagement, and make informed decisions.

Healthy Together's hands-on, collaborative implementation approach ensures the platform is configured to meet the specific needs of the Choctaw Nation Health Services Authority. "This partnership reflects our commitment to leveraging technology to better serve our community," said Shelly Rector, Senior Director of Health Services Food and Nutrition Programs at Choctaw Nation Health Services Authority. "We've been thrilled with how seamlessly the platform has helped simplify processes for families while giving our team the tools they need to run the program more effectively."
