2025 NWA National Policy Conference

February 25-February 27, 2025




About the Conference

Join us for the 2025 National Policy Conference, Celebrating 40 Years of WIC Advocacy, on Tuesday, February 25, through Thursday, February 27, 2025.

This year’s virtual conference marks NWA’s 40th anniversary—a milestone celebrating four decades of fighting for WIC. As we enter a new Congress and a new Presidential Administration, we will reflect on past successes and learn from policy experts about new opportunities to protect and strengthen WIC.

Since 1975, NWA has led the charge in advocating for nutrition and breastfeeding support, ensuring that WIC families receive vital services and addressing maternal and child health disparities. The National Policy Conference is our annual forum to highlight emerging WIC policy issues in a changing landscape and build leadership skills to empower WIC advocacy locally and nationally.

The conference will culminate with NWA’s Annual Capitol Hill Education Day on Thursday, February 27, where attendees can virtually engage with Congressional leaders and their staff to advocate for WIC’s essential services. For questions about Capitol Hill Education Day, please reach out to NWA’s Advocacy Manager, Marie Gualtieri at mgualtieri@nwica.org.

We look forward to commemorating this milestone year with you as we work together to support and uplift WIC families for generations to come.

The conference will start on Tuesday, February 25 and will end with the Annual Capitol Hill Education Day on Thursday, February 27. Note: The conference is closed to press.
