Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program provides high-quality, cost-effective healthcare and nutrition services to pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and children up to age 5. The program offers food assistance, nutrition education, and referrals for healthcare services. SNAP and food stamps are both terms for the same government food assistance program. The March of Dimes focuses on preventing birth defects and improving maternal and child health but does not provide healthcare or nutrition services directly. The OAA (Older Americans Act) program provides services for older adults, not specifically for pregnant or breastfeeding women and young children.
