For almost 50 years, WIC has played a crucial role in adequately delivering quality nutrition services and breastfeeding support for American families. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to play a significant role in redefining WIC services, NWA remains persistent in pushing and advocating for common-sense WIC legislation in all levels of government.
The National Policy Conference is our annual forum to highlight emerging and pressing WIC policy issues, promising practices in administering WIC services, and leadership skills to empower and sustain WIC advocacy at the local level.
The conference culminates with NWA’s Annual Capitol Hill Education Day on February 17, allowing members to virtually engage with Congressional leaders and their staff on WIC’s importance and services.
