Double Value Coupon Program
The Double Value Coupon Program, also known as DVCP, is one of three initiatives that are part of Wholesome Wave’s Nourishing Neighborhoods program. The program aims to provide under-served communities with fresh fruits and vegetables by allowing consumers to double the value of federal nutrition benefits from Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly food stamps) and Women, Infant and Children (WIC) funding when used at participating farmers’ markets.〔"Wholesome Wave Extends Successful Food Initiative with Fairfield County Community Foundation Grant of $20,000," Bridgeport News and Announcements ()〕
==History==
The Double Value Coupon Program was launched in 2008 at the Westport, CT farmers market with seed money for the pilot program from the Betsy and Jesse Fink Foundation. In 2009, building from successful pilot programs in 2008 and with support from a number of foundations and donors, Wholesome Wave outreach expanded the DVCP program to ten states and the District of Columbia. As of 2012, the program has expanded to include 300 markets in 24 states and the District of Columbia and has reached over 40,000 participants.〔(Double Value Coupon Program )〕 Wholesome Wave partners with over 60 community-based non-profit organizations to bring these DVCP incentives to federal benefit recipients that can be redeemed towards fresh locally grown produce.〔"Food programs help residents stretch dollars, give boost to farmers," TriCities.com ()〕
