FNS Documents & Resources

FNS is notifying WIC state agencies that the WIC Policy Memorandum #2011-6, Authority to Exceed the Maximum Amount of Liquid Infant Formula, dated June 1, 2011, is cancelled.

This memo transmits the requirements for a state agency seeking to implement EBT/CVB at WIC-authorized Farmers and Farmers' Markets.

This policy memorandum transmits the 2019-2020 Income Eligibility Guidelines for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) that were published in the Federal Register on April 26, 2019.

The VENA Guidance is intended to guide WIC state agencies in developing policies and procedures related to all aspects of nutrition assessment.

This policy memorandum supplements the guidance provided to state agencies on Jan. 4, 2006, regarding the significance of the Temporary Restraining Order issued on Dec. 29, 2005, by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, for the implementation of the WIC Vendor Cost Containment Interim Rule, published in the Federal Register on Nov. 29, 2005.

Secretary of Agriculture, do hereby proclaim August 1–7, 2023, as National WIC Breastfeeding Week.

The purpose of this memorandum is to ensure that all stakeholders are aware of the federal regulatory scheme related to bidding on single milk- and soy-based infant formula rebate contracts.

WIC is not designed to be a disaster assistance program, and is, therefore, not considered a first response option for disaster survivors. WIC policies allow state agencies flexibility in program design and administration to support continuation of benefits to participants during times of natural or other disasters. WIC state agencies are encouraged to work with state and local emergency services offices, as well as FEMA, to assist participants during a disaster.
