I have a question for those who work with WIC. If a mother is going to
totally formula feed her baby for the first year, what percentage of the
formula that the baby drinks is provided by WIC?

I realize that WIC is a supplemental food program for infants, so a good
portion of the formula will need to be purchased. Does anyone know the
percentage?

WIC will provide 30 cans of formula a month x 12 so that would be 360 cans.
Would the parents have to purchase say 60 cans extra? (just a guess.)If
anyone knows please let me know. I am working on a project and would like
to have this information.
