The NYS WIC Program is seeking to identify food items eligible to be authorized for purchase by NYS WIC participants that align with the Final Rule: Revisions in the WIC Food Packages, which was updated and released by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in 2024. Provisions within the Final Rule allow new food items, additional container sizes, and establish revised nutritional requirements for some food categories. The information obtained through this Request for Information (RFI) will be used by NYS WIC for program planning and to assist in the selection of products for the NYS WIC Program APL. The NYS WIC Acceptable Foods Card will also be updated to reflect revisions made to the APL as a result of this RFI.
