On November 12th, our very own WIC chick, Kali G., was able to have a COVID-safe Zoom phone call with Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers and another partner at Nutrition First to give a different perspective on the struggle families (especially those led by essential workers' income) have had, getting away from numbers on a paper to the real world herself and our amazing team here serves in. Kali says "We've been a way for people to stay connected when families are otherwise isolated." This especially rings true for F.A.F.B families and our rural-area families in Cheney. She left the conversation feeling received, connected, and hopeful.

​

Thank you for your advocacy, Kali! 

And to the rest of our team for their dedication and kindness. As Kali's co-worker, Kristina S. loves to say, when the pandemic hit, "WIC never stopped".
