*NSA = Nutrition Service and Administrative costs.  Approximately two-thirds of total costs are used to provide nutrition education, breastfeeding promotion and support, and linkages to health and other client services (e.g.,immunization; drug, alcohol and tobacco education; referrals to family and child health social programs).  The remaining third is used for traditional management functions.

The annual average food cost is the benefit per month. 
FY 2013 data are preliminary; all numbers are subject to revision.
