2023 NWA Virtual National Policy Conference WWA Scholarship Application
The Wisconsin WIC Association is offering its members the opportunity to apply for a scholarship to cover the registration cost of the 2023 NWA Virtual National Policy Conference on February 21-24, 2023.
WWA will provide scholarships to 12 applicants. Preference will be given to those that have not received a scholarship in the past year and WWA seeks to send WIC staff from all of the 8 legislative districts.

This annual conference provides WIC staff and stakeholders around the nation to join to learn how to advocate for the WIC Program.

The conference is split up into two parts:

1. The first part features sessions about federal and state WIC policy, local WIC leadership, WIC research, WIC food packages, immigrants’ access to WIC, creating strong WIC messages, and other exciting topics.  

2. The second part includes an “Advocacy Day” where we will be scheduled to meet with the offices of our Senators and Representatives to educate them on the role WIC plays, bringing the message from a local perspective.

For complete conference information (including the tentative agenda), please see the NWA website: National WIC Association (nwica.org)

The deadline for scholarship applications will be 1/13/2023.

Recipients of the scholarship will be expected to share about their experience at the conference and become a member of the WWA Advocacy Committee.
