October 2025 | QCCN Joins the “Health Bucks” Program
Queens Childcare Network (QCCN) is excited to share that we have been approved as a Health Bucks partner!
Health Bucks are $2 coupons for fresh produce available at NYC farmers markets, and they work by providing a dollar-for-dollar match for SNAP/EBT purchases.
Health Bucks are distributed by the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), which collaborates with Community-Based Organizations and Farmers Markets to give coupons to eligible New Yorkers.
HOW IT WORKS:
-
Health Bucks can be used to buy fresh fruits and vegetables at NYC Farmers Markets year-round.
-
QCCN has been awarded $200 in Health Bucks, which we’ll share with our affiliated childcare providers to purchase fresh food for their programs.
-
As needed, the QCCN Team will assist with buying and delivering local produce—helping close the gap between locally sourced food and NYC childcare programs.
