WIC was established as a permanent program in 1974 to safeguard the health of low-income women, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at nutritional risk. This mission is carried out by providing nutritious foods to supplement diets, nutrition education (including breastfeeding promotion and support), and referrals to health and other social services.
These worksheets can be used to empower CACFP providers and operators with the knowledge, skills and expertise to implement meal pattern requirements.
