However, only one recent demonstration study provides any information on the costs associated with implementing various interventions. Given the limited resources available to provide WIC nutrition services, information about the costs to provide effective services could play a critical role in managers' decisions to implement the intervention and policymakers' decisions about funding the intervention. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-442/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-442.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-442/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-442.pdf GAO-01-442 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-01-442 Other Written Product GAO-01-442; Food Assistance: Research Provides Limited Information on the Effectiveness of Specific WIC Nutrition Services; Food programs for children Nutrition research Program evaluation State-administered programs Statistical data Statistical methods Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children WIC Public Law 105-86 Public Law 105-336
