WIC food expense

The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service awarded Santo Domingo Pueblo $462,102 on October 1, 2025, under the WIC Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (CFDA 10.557) to fund food expenses. The award runs through September 30, 2026, and performance takes place in Kewa Pueblo, New Mexico. Santo Domingo Pueblo, a federally recognized tribal government doing business as Santo Domingo Tribe, operates the program as a direct recipient serving enrolled members and eligible community residents. The WIC program provides supplemental nutritious foods, nutrition education, breastfeeding promotion and support, and health and social service referrals to income-eligible pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age five determined to be at nutritional risk. This is a formula grant, one of Santo Domingo Pueblo's recurring WIC awards that also cover administrative costs and breastfeeding peer counselor programs across its service area.
