Despite a partial shutdown of the federal government that year, Mississippi got permission to keep operating WIC through October. While Utah has decided it can weather this year's federal shutdown through January, federal funds for the Utah Women, Infants and Children Program and for the National School Lunch Program could dry up if it lasts longer than that.
