What it does
Existing law, the California Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) , under the administration of the State Department of Public Health, provides for the issuance of nutrition coupons, as defined, to certain low-income women, infants, and children who have been determined to be at nutritional risk. Existing law authorizes the department to design, implement, and fund an electronic benefits transfer (EBT) system for WIC. Existing law requires the department to develop a plan to determine the feasibility of implementing an EBT system for WIC by January 1, 2003, and to report its findings to the Legislature by July 1, 2003.
