WIC Administrative Expenses Formula Grant Award Summary

The Rosebud Sioux Tribe received a Formula Grant award of $526,270 from the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) for the WIC Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (CFDA 10.557). The award, obligated on October 1, 2025, with a completion date of September 30, 2026, provides federal funding specifically designated for administrative expenses associated with WIC program operations on the Rosebud Indian Reservation.

As an Indian Tribal Organization delivering WIC services, the Rosebud Sioux Tribe utilizes these administrative funds to support program management, operations, and coordination of supplemental nutrition assistance for income-eligible pregnant women, breastfeeding and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age five determined to be at nutritional risk. The funding enables the Tribe to maintain the infrastructure and personnel necessary to administer nutrition education, promote breastfeeding support, process participant certifications, manage food delivery systems, and coordinate referrals to health and social services for the tribal population served under the WIC program.
