New Hanover County was one of the first eight counties in North Carolina to transition its WIC program into the electronic Crossroads system.
The new system solves some inefficiencies in the WIC intake process. Unlike the NC Fast system, which overhauled the state’s food stamp system but was beset by massive computer problems, the Crossroads system has gone rather smoothly, said Nancy Nail, nutrition services supervisor for New Hanover County.
