Juice for Healthy Families Act of 2026

The Juice for Healthy Families Act of 2026 amends the Child Nutrition Act to increase the maximum monthly allowance of single-strength juice for participants in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Under this change, families receiving Food Packages IV, V, VI, or VII would be authorized to receive up to 128 fluid ounces of juice per month instead of the current limit. This policy adjustment directly affects WIC participants by expanding their access to juice as part of their nutritional support. The bill does not alter eligibility requirements or the overall structure of the program, focusing solely on the specific quantity of juice permitted.
