Nutrition

Have you ever heard the saying “You are what you eat?” While you won’t literally turn into junk food, the foods you do eat play an important role in your overall health. Your daily food choices impact energy levels, emotions, and overall heath – both today and in the future.

Making small changes towards healthier eating can make big differences. WIC is here to help.

Breastfeeding

Breast milk is the ideal source of nutrition for most babies during the first year of life. It is specially designed to meet your baby’s needs and gives many healthy benefits for both a baby and parent.

The WIC program offers breastfeeding support through trained experts who are available to answer questions, provide guidance, and help families breastfeed successfully.

WIC also supports breastfeeding women through:

•  One-on-one help with breastfeeding experts
•  Peer Counselors
•  Breastfeeding classes
•  Breast pumps and supplies (based on determined need)
•  Additional food benefits for both mother and breastfed baby

All WIC breastfeeding support services are provided at no cost to eligible participants.
