Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is true. WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) is a federal assistance program that provides nutrition education, healthy food, and other support to low-income pregnant women, new mothers, and young children. As a requirement of the program, participants must meet with a nutritionist or health professional to discuss their nutritional needs and receive guidance on making healthy choices. Therefore, low-income families with young children who participate in WIC are more likely to see a nutritionist than higher income families who do not participate in the program.
