Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The Sheppard-Towner Act also offered well-child and child-development services, provided ad-equate hospital services and facilities for women and children, and provided grants-in-aid for es-tablishing maternal and child welfare programs. The Sheppard-Towner Act defined the role of the federal government in creating standards to be followed by states in conducting categorical programs, such as WIC and EPSDT programs.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The United States Constitution gives the federal government the authority to provide for the protection of the public's health. By monitoring the influx of disease at the borders the public's health is being protected. Interpreting decisions does not support the protection of the public's health. Smallpox has been eradicated so it would not be necessary to set up immunization clinics. Regulation of nursing at the state level does not support protection of the public's health by the federal government.
