WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) is a government assistance program that provides nutrition education, healthy food, and support for eligible pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and young children. Belle's pregnancy and nutritional deficiencies make her a good candidate for the WIC program, which can provide her and her children with the necessary nutrition and support to improve their health status. ERS (Emergency Response System) is not relevant to Belle's situation, while FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) and FDA (Food and Drug Administration) do not offer support services for low-income families.
