Recovery Act New SAM and EBT Grant: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Service is announcing the availability of funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act). The ARRA provides a total of $100 million to be used by WIC State agencies to establish, improve or administer management information systems (MIS) for WIC, to include changes necessary to meet new legislative or regulatory requirements. In this funding opportunity we will provide ARRA funding to new projects for: 1) implementation of new State Agency Model (SAM) transfers; 2) new EBT planning grants; and 3) new EBT implementation grants for those WIC State agencies that have completed or nearly completed EBT planning activities. For new SAM transfers, State agencies will need to demonstrate, through their planning activities and an alternatives analysis, that a SAM transfer is the most appropriate system that meets Program needs. FNS has a waiver from OMB and will not be using Grants.gov APPLY to notify or receive applications for this grant opportunity. FNS will contact each State Agency, in writing, concerning application procedures in the near future. For additional information on the ARRA - WIC/MIS grant opportunities please go to the USDA Recovery Act web site at www.usda.gov/recovery.
