Formula Grant 257NVTN7W1003

This $391,598 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service under the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) CFDA 10.557 program will provide administrative funding to the Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada (ITCN), a non-profit organization serving 28 Tribal Nations in Nevada. The grant will support ITCN's operation of WIC nutrition clinics, delivery of supplemental foods and nutrition education, and provision of other critical services to low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age five who are at nutritional risk. As a frequent recipient of federal WIC program grants, ITCN utilizes this funding to administer a range of community assistance initiatives tailored to Nevada's Native American populations, including early childhood education, workforce training, victim services, environmental compliance, and broadband infrastructure development.
