GusNIP funds nutrition incentive programs that increase the purchase and consumption of fruits and vegetables by low-income consumers at the point of sale in grocery stores, farmers markets, and other retail food locations. Produce prescription programs that provide fresh produce to patients with diet-related diseases are also funded. Projects must leverage SNAP or other federal nutrition benefits.
