nutritional assistance

Nutritional assistance programs are services designed to help individuals and families access healthy foods needed for proper nutrition. They may include financial support, such as food stamps or benefits, meal programs, or education on making healthier food choices. These programs aim to reduce food insecurity, ensuring people have consistent access to nutritious meals, which supports overall health, growth, and well-being. They are often provided by government agencies or non-profit organizations to address gaps in food availability and promote better health outcomes across communities.
