The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service awarded Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin $489,694 under the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (CFDA 10.567) on October 1, 2025, to administer nutrition assistance through USDA Foods distribution to income-eligible households on participating reservations through September 30, 2027.

Ho-Chunk Nation, a federally recognized tribal government headquartered in Black River Falls, Wisconsin, operates FDPIR as an alternative to SNAP for households with limited access to SNAP offices or authorized food retailers. The Nation certifies eligible households based on national income standards, orders from a list of over 100 available USDA Foods including frozen and canned meats and fish, beans, peanut butter, fruits and vegetables, grains, and dairy products, and distributes monthly food packages tailored to household size under federal guide rates. The Nation maintains household case files and program records for three years following the close of each fiscal year.
