The National Collaborative for Infants & Toddlers (NCIT) would like to express our heartfelt thanks to those who signed onto our recent letter with the National WIC Association advocating for fully funding the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). The final letter was sent to key policymakers on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, September 26, 2023.
We’re absolutely thrilled to share that the letter received more than 600 signatures from organizations across all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and Washington, D.C. The collective efforts of our advocates truly made a powerful impact in championing food and nutrition security for pregnant people, infants and toddlers.
WAYS TO LEVERAGE THE LETTER:
- Spread the word among your fantastic board members and partners letting them know you are involved in a national push for WIC.
- Share this exciting news with your funders, both current supporters and potential partners. It’s a wonderful way to show them your proactive stance in shaping policies that directly impact the health and well-being of women, infants, and children nationwide.
- Spread the word on social media using #NCITforWIC. Let’s amplify this message and inspire others to join us in advocating for vital PN-3 programs like WIC!
