WIC food non appr

The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service awarded the Oklahoma State Department of Health $2,030,902 on October 1, 2025, under the WIC Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (CFDA 10.557). The award funds supplemental food expenses for income-eligible pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age five determined to be at nutritional risk, including nutrition education and breastfeeding promotion and support services.

The Oklahoma State Department of Health serves as the state agency administering WIC locally across Oklahoma City. Performance runs through September 30, 2026. The state agency distributes WIC food funding to local service delivery organizations to support program operations statewide. This formula grant represents one component of Oklahoma's WIC funding; the state concurrently received $24.37 million in WIC administrative expenses and additional funding for breastfeeding peer counselor services under the same program for the same performance period, with distributions flowing to six sub-recipient local WIC service delivery organizations.
