SCOPE OF WORK 
 
1. 
BACKGROUND 
 
The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) Bureau of Nutrition and Physical Activity (BNPA) administers 
funds provided by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for the operation of the Special Supplemental 
Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) and Breastfeeding Peer Counseling Program (BFPC) for the 
State of Arizona. The USDA nutrition programs are discretionary, and each provides a specific service to women, 
infants, and children who are low income and at nutrition risk. The overall goal of all the USDA Nutrition Programs is 
to increase food security and reduce hunger by providing eligible participants access to nourishing food and supportive 
nutrition education. 
 
1.1. 
WIC Nutrition Services 
 
1.1.1. 
The WIC Program accomplishes this goal by providing participant-centered services (PCS) including 
nutrition and breastfeeding information and support, specific supplemental healthy foods through the 
issuance of food benefits that can be used at ADHS-approved grocery stores, and referrals to other 
health and human services as an adjunct to good health care during critical times of growth and 
development. Service population eligibility for the WIC Program is based upon federal regulations 
such as participant category (pregnant and breastfeeding women, postpartum women, and infants or 
children under five years of age), a household income at or below 185% of federal poverty guidelines, 
residence within the service area, and nutrition risks. 
 
1.1.2. 
To be considered as a WIC Local Agency, the organization must be a local public or private non-
profit organization, County health department, or tribal entity under contract with ADHS to provide 
WIC services according to the WIC Program federal regulations and state policies and procedures. 
The State awards a WIC Contract based on the ability of the organization to provide WIC services, 
potentially eligible population, need, response to the Scope of Work, information technology capacity, 
and available funds. The State determines and awards the WIC contract amount based on a funding 
formula using several factors such as a base level for a program to function, the amount of caseload 
negotiated with each Local Agency, and quality of performance. 
 
1.1.1.1 
Specific objectives for nutrition services (based on Healthy People 2030 goals) are: 
 
1.1.1.1.1 
To increase the incidence of women initiating breastfeeding, 
 
1.1.1.1.2 
To increase the duration of women breastfeeding for the first six (6) months 
of their baby’s life, 
 
1.1.1.1.3 
To increase the duration of breastfeeding women breastfeeding for the first 
year of their baby’s life, 
 
1.1.1.1.4 
To increase the rate infants are exclusively breastfed at three (3) months 
and at six months, 
 
1.1.1.1.5 
To reduce the proportion of adults who are considered obese, 
 
1.1.1.1.6 
To reduce the proportion of children ages two (2) to five (5) who are 
considered obese, 
 
1.1.1.1.7 
To increase the consumption and variety of fruits and vegetables by those 
two (2) and older, 
 
1.1.1.1.8 
To increase the consumption of whole grains by those two (2) and older; and

1.1.1.1.9 
To reduce household food insecurity and hunger. 
 
1.2. 
Breastfeeding Peer Counseling (BFPC) 
 
1.2.1. 
Breastfeeding peer counselors add a critical dimension to WIC’s efforts to help women initiate and 
continue breastfeeding. WIC breastfeeding peer counselors provide a valuable service to their 
communities, addressing barriers to breastfeeding by offering breastfeeding education, support, and 
role modeling. They are familiar with the resources available to WIC participants and the questions a 
new breastfeeding mother may ask, and recognize when to refer mothers to other resources when 
issues outside their scope of practice arise. In 2020 the USDA Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) 
released their new national breastfeeding campaign titled: WIC Breastfeeding Support: Learn 
Together. Grow Together. As a part of this, FNS has developed training and technical assistance to 
equip WIC Programs with a framework for designing and maintaining peer counseling programs. 
Developing this training included formative research to understand barriers and motivators to 
implementing and sustaining peer counseling programs and develop training curricula. This Peer 
Counseling Training for WIC Managers, which is a training and technical assistance project that will 
be used as a model to aid WIC in designing, building, maintaining, and sustaining peer counseling 
programs that will improve breastfeeding initiation and duration rates. Arizona will be using this 
program to guide and develop the state peer counseling program. 
 
1.2.2. 
The discretionary peer counseling services are considered an adjunct support to WIC breastfeeding 
services to help achieve the WIC Nutrition Services objectives regarding breastfeeding. 
 
1.2.3. 
Peer counseling has been a significant factor in improving initiation and duration rates of 
breastfeeding among women in a variety of settings, including disadvantaged and WIC populations 
representing diverse cultural backgrounds and geographical locations. Peer counselors are 
especially effective in communities where role models for breastfeeding behaviors, knowledgeable 
health care providers, and cultural practices that include breastfeeding as the norm, are scarce. 
Combining peer counseling with the ongoing WIC breastfeeding promotion and support efforts has 
the potential to significantly impact breastfeeding rates among WIC participants, and most 
significantly, increase the harder to achieve breastfeeding duration rates. WIC Local Agencies are 
strongly encouraged to provide peer counseling services in addition to the ongoing breastfeeding 
support to their WIC participants. Contractors must provide a breastfeeding friendly environment and 
have policies to accommodate participants and staff who are breastfeeding.

OBJECTIVE 
 
At a minimum, to provide WIC services while allowing each Local Agency to provide, at their discretion, Breastfeeding 
Peer Counseling Services.
