Supporting Healthy Mothers and Infants Act of 2025

This bill amends the WIC program to replace "drug abuse" with "substance use disorder" throughout its provisions, directly affecting WIC participants who may have substance use disorder. Key mechanisms include creating new nutrition education materials for pregnant individuals with substance use disorder and infants affected by prenatal exposure, establishing an online clearinghouse for these resources, and authorizing $1 million for fiscal year 2026. The changes aim to provide evidence-based, non-judgmental support through updated program materials and outreach. The bill specifically targets WIC participants impacted by substance use disorder, not broader population changes.
