The pandemic has provided unexpected, but welcomed, opportunities to improve accessibility for WIC beneficiaries. Local agency and state staff have accomplished herculean feats to adopt technologies and innovative work processes, while also adapting to continuous quality improvement strategies. Unfortunately, the pandemic is only one of many extreme challenges impacting local communities. Racism, environmental threats, and prosperity inequities are issues that will impact WIC participation and outcomes, magnifying the importance of WIC and safety net programs as critical foundations to the success of families and communities.
During the Fall Conference attendees will dive into issues that drive program outcomes and community success when a holistic approach is taken to program management.
