History

Historical Context

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program, created as a permanent federal nutrition aid on Oct 7 1975 after a 1972 pilot sponsored by Sen. Hubert Humphrey, now reaches about 53 % of U.S. infants. Building on that legacy, Nevada’s American Mothers Nevada Association and the 2007-founded Living Grace Homes extend prenatal nutrition and housing support to pregnant women, echoing WIC’s federal model.
