In their latest policy action brief, Children's Health Watch states that certain federal programs are essential for the health of very young children. Further, the brief argues that budgetary changes to these programs will undermine the health of these children.
Programs mentioned include:
- Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
- WIC
- Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
- Affordable housing
