Pacify in West Virginia WIC Program
State of West Virginia Office of Nutrition Services WIC
I am Lesli Taylor, MA and I am the Research Specialist for the State WIC office of West Virginia. I have a background in learning psychology but made the transition to research in women's health in 2019. During my time working for a healthcare system in West Virginia I was able to gain a perspective on the health issues many women from rural and/or low income areas face in pregnancy and postpartum. It is my goal to use my research experience to help bridge the gap between research findings and how we deliver public health services to those populations, which has led me to my position in West Virginia WIC.
