WIC Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT)
5-Year Plan
Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) development has been a
key long-term goal of the USDA Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) and of
the WIC Program. The challenge is finding technological solutions
that are both affordable and can meet the functional needs of a
relatively complex nutrition program. As a cornerstone of our
initiative to pursue an EBT solution, FNS developed the Special
Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC)
Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) System Development, Implementation,
and Expansion - 5-Year Plan. This action plan describes the
tasks that FNS will undertake between fiscal years 2004 and 2008 to
achieve its goals for EBT. This plan will evolve over time as
milestones are met and lessons are learned.
