Commission On Economic Opportunity
The Commission on Economic Opportunity operates the WIC program (Women, Infants, and Children) to support low-income families by providing nutritional assistance and healthcare referrals. Established by the Child Nutrition Act in 1966, WIC focuses on enhancing the health and well-being of pregnant women, new mothers, and children up to the age of five through various resources, including food aid, nutritional counseling, and education.
WIC is designed as a short-term program that aims to improve the long-term nutrition and health of participants. By offering free access to nutritious foods, breastfeeding support, and parenting advice, WIC empowers families to lead healthier lifestyles while alleviating financial burdens related to food expenses.
