How much WIC funding is obligated in Mississippi?

USAspending.gov shows $313,301,714.16 in obligations for CFDA 10.557 with Mississippi as place of performance, across 29 awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not Mississippi’s full nutrition budget. Other USDA listings are outside this join unless they also carry 10.557.

Do 29 awards mean 29 Mississippi WIC clinics?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include continuations. It is not a clinic or participant census. The packet does not name recipients. See the Mississippi 10.557 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Does this include SNAP in Mississippi?

No. This page is CFDA 10.557, WIC. SNAP and school-meal programs use different CFDA numbers. Those dollars are not inside $313,301,714.16 unless the award also carries 10.557. The extract has no participant count.

Is $313 million already spent on Mississippi WIC food packages?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $313,301,714.16 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Benefit redemptions and remaining balances are not published in this packet.

Total obligated

$334.0M

Awards

The WIC Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (CFDA 10.557) shows $313,301,714.16 in USAspending.gov obligations with Mississippi as place of performance. Twenty-nine awards carry that total — a modest list of large assistance rows, not twenty-nine clinics. The join is a USDA nutrition listing crossed with a state location field, not Mississippi’s entire food-assistance budget. Alabama’s WIC overlay on this slice is a separate pair. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Key figures

CFDA 10.557 in Mississippi shows $313,301,714.16 in USAspending obligations on 29 awards.
Twenty-nine awards are formula-style rows, not a clinic or participant census.

The total is commitments, not food benefits already redeemed.

Mississippi x 10.557 is a WIC join, not a participant census

This page pairs CFDA 10.557, WIC SPECIAL SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION PROGRAM FOR WOMEN, INFANTS, AND CHILDREN, with Mississippi place of performance. WIC, in program language, provides supplemental foods, nutrition education, and referrals for eligible women, infants, and children. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $313,301,714.16 on 29 awards. The extract does not list participants, food packages, or clinic sites. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state has more nutrition need, and not a claim that 29 awards equal 29 counties.

Other USDA listings — SNAP, ACEP on 10.931, or DFAP on 10.984 — sit outside $313,301,714.16 unless they also carry 10.557. Mississippi’s VA state-home join on 64.015 is a VA overlay, not a WIC subset. Mixing WIC with SNAP would invent a combined nutrition figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and infant-health indicators is not causation. Those indicators are not in the packet. Place of performance as Mississippi locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $313,301,714.16 in the state treasury.

29 awards behind $313.3 million

Mean obligation is about $10,803,507.38 if $313,301,714.16 were divided evenly across 29 lines. That ratio is not a published food-package cost and not a benefit per participant. Formula-style WIC awards often post as a handful of rows to a state health agency, with additional lines possible for continuations. Award count is a row count. It is not a count of clinics, counties, or participants.

Twenty-nine lines are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent the lead agency name. Open Wic Special Supplemental Nutrition Program For Women, Infants, And Children in Mississippi for the stored table. Do not convert 29 into a map of Mississippi WIC clinics. The $313,301,714.16 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards, not food instruments already redeemed. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a caseload.
