1.1.1 General program introduction

7 CFR Code of Federal Regulations 273.1(a)

FoodShare Wisconsin helps individuals and families who have little money to buy the food they need for good health.

 

The US Department of Agriculture is responsible for setting the basic program rules so they are similar everywhere in the country. The Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services administers the state’s FoodShare Program. Government workers at county/tribal human or social service agencies (local agencies) determine eligibility for FoodShare benefits and are responsible for issuing benefits.
