 WIC: WOMEN, INFANTS and CHILDREN

What is WIC ?  WIC is a federally funded program that provides healthy foods and nutrition counseling to pregnant women, new mothers, infants and children under five.

WIC Works Wonders !!!

  • Women in the program eat better and have healthier babies.

  • Babies born to WIC mothers weigh more and develop more successfully.

  • Children participating in WIC eat nutritious foods high in iron and vitamin C.  This helps build strong minds and bodies.
