Secretary of Agriculture, do hereby proclaim August 1–7, 2023, as National WIC Breastfeeding Week.
This collection is a revision of a currently approved collection for awarding local agencies for excellence in WIC breastfeeding services and support. Section 231 of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, PL 111-296, requires that USDA establish a program to recognize WIC local agencies and clinics that demonstrate exemplary breastfeeding promotion and support activities.
The USDA WIC Telehealth Innovations Project is an $8.5 million cooperative agreement with Tufts University that will test and evaluate the use of telehealth innovations in the delivery of USDA’s Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC). The project’s goal is to develop, test, and evaluate cutting-edge technology to improve delivery of nutrition education to pregnant women and caregivers of young children participating in USDA’s WIC Program. Tufts will competitively select and award up to $5 million in sub-grants to State agencies (including U.S. territories and Indian Tribal Organizations) with the most promising proposals. These projects will explore ways to harness telehealth advances to augment nutrition education and breastfeeding support normally offered onsite at WIC clinics.
