WIC Program
The WIC Program, or Women, Infants, and Children Program, is a federal assistance initiative in the United States designed to provide nutritional support to low-income pregnant women, new mothers, and young children. It offers access to healthy foods, nutrition education, and healthcare referrals to promote better health outcomes for families.
Participants in the WIC Program receive benefits such as vouchers for purchasing specific nutritious foods, including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and dairy products. The program aims to improve the health and well-being of vulnerable populations by ensuring they have access to essential nutrition during critical developmental stages.
