CRIB fully integrates the federal Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program with the state's Family Case Management program (a service coordination program targeting pregnant women and infants) in an effort to reduce the incidence of low birthweight babies born in the state. Services provided through these two previously separate programs can now be accessed through a single agency contact. The initiative grew out of an evaluation showing that families served by both programs had better outcomes. Implementation involved a statewide training effort of agency staff that focused on improving service delivery and is supported by a sophisticated data management system that also facilitates coordination with a wide range of health and welfare-related programming.

The activities summarized here are a combination of ADA and ADAF initiatives and address the need to achieve a balance between nutrition and physical activity as a key concept. Family Nutrition and Physical Activity Screening Tool Funding has been provided for the first phase from the Ann Hertzler Fund. The planning group had three teleconferences and a meeting to begin identifying concepts for the tool. A summary of their discussion was published in the May 2002 Journal of the American Dietetic Association. An application for federal funding (MCHB) of the questionnaire developmental portion was re-submitted in March 2003. Funding has been received to proceed with the systematic review of literature and to write a paper for publication.
