Mississippi WIC Program Online Shopping Project
Project Summary:
Mississippi WIC (MS WIC) will work with two vendors, Walmart and the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA), and their electronic benefits transfer (EBT) processor, Conduent, to implement WIC online shopping. MS WIC aims to continue providing their caseload of over 70,000 WIC participants with greater opportunities to shop for food both in-person and online and empower families across MS to prioritize their health and well-being. The MS project will be one of two pilot projects working with an EBT processor new to WIC online shopping.
