The Puerto Rico Department of Health (PRDOH) was awarded a $1.24 million Formula Grant by the United States Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service to modernize the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) in Puerto Rico from May 2023 through September 2027. As the grantee, PRDOH will deliver supplemental nutritious foods, nutrition education, and referrals to health and social services to low-income pregnant, breastfeeding and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age five who are determined to be at nutritional risk. The WIC program, funded under the CFDA #10.557, aims to improve the health of low-income families through provision of these supplemental nutrition services.
