Wake Up Tri-Counties RaeAnn Tucker Talks Child Nutrition Month, Family Planning, WIC, and Child Abuse Prevention Month

RaeAnn Tucker joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about April events and designations as we close out the month. As April draws to a close, the Henry and Stark County Health Department is highlighting important programs supporting local families. This month is Global Child Nutrition Month, and the WIC Supplemental Food Program is in the spotlight, offering free groceries and nutrition guidance to mothers and children. With the new Illinois WIC EBT Card and expanded clinic hours, access is easier than ever for working families in Henry, Stark, Marshall, and Putnam counties. Health officials are also marking Child Abuse Prevention Month, donning blue and urging community action with the theme “It Takes a Village” to help end child abuse and promote healthier futures for children.
