The exact amount of food depends on things such as the child's age and whether or not a mother is breastfeeding. Postpartum women receive less milk, and no carrots, tuna, peanut butter or beans. Children receive similar packages to mothers. Infants over 4 months old receive infant cereal and over 6 months old receive infant juices. Bottle-fed babies receive contract formulas.
Breastfed babies are healthier and sometimes breastfeeding mothers want some supplemental formula.
Certification occurs every 6 months. Between certifications clients attend nutrition sessions and receive supplemental food vouchers for one or two month periods.
