Subsidized food programs

Subsidized food programs are government initiatives designed to make nutritious food more affordable for low-income individuals and families. The government provides financial assistance or discounts to help reduce the cost of groceries, ensuring that vulnerable populations can access essential nutrients. Examples include programs like the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and school lunch programs. These programs aim to improve public health, reduce hunger, and promote economic stability by supporting those who might otherwise struggle to afford a balanced diet.
