WIC Program Benefits Get Temporary Boost


The Wyoming Department of Health just released an announcement that monthly benefits for families participating in the Wyoming WIC Program, operated by the Wyoming Department of Health (WDH), will see a significant temporary boost over the next few months.
Through the end of September 2021, the fruit and vegetable voucher included as one part of WIC benefits has increased to $35/month per participant from the standard $9/month for children and $11/month for women. 
The increase was included in the federal American Rescue Plan Act approved earlier this year.
Melissa Stehwien, WIC program manager with WDH, said, “Providing even more nutritious, delicious fruits and vegetables (fresh or frozen) during the peak growing season than we already offer can both promote healthier living and help to reduce food insecurity.” ....
