WIC was established as a permanent program in 1974 to safeguard the health of low-income women, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at nutritional risk. WIC helps families combat food insecurity and nutrition-related health problems, including obesity and type 2 diabetes. WIC is also the largest public breastfeeding promotion program in the nation, providing mothers with education and support.
