Hello,

Hope you are doing good.

Job ID: 717164

Job Description:

In 2021, the USDA ranked North Carolina 17th nationally in food insecurity. The USDA estimated that 10.9% of North Carolina’s residents are food insecure. To help respond to this challenge, North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS) started an initiative known as Cross-Program Enrollment. The Cross-Program Enrollment project aimed to identify individuals currently enrolled in NC DHHS programs that are likely eligible for more food related benefits. Once these populations are identified, NC DHHS conducts various outreach efforts to encourage these individuals to apply for the additional benefits they may be eligible for. The primary goal of this effort is to grow enrollment in the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program as well as the Food and Nutritional Services (FNS) and consequently provide more food benefits to food insecure residents across North Carolina.
