The clock is ticking for WIC
|
|
If
the government shutdown continues, WIC might come to a standstill. WIC
was created in 1973 to improve the health of low-income pregnant women,
new mothers, and young children. It serves nearly 9 million today, and
has a positive impact on children's health and even economics.
