The WIC staff cares about you and your children. They will provide: 

  • Breastfeeding support, breastfeeding counseling, and a breast pump if needed.
  • Nutrition counseling for you and your family's individual health needs.
  • A WIC Food Card to buy specific foods that helps keep you and your family strong and healthy such as:
    • Milk, Cheese, Yogurt, Eggs, Cereal, Whole Grains, Tofu
    • Peanut Butter, Dried or Canned Beans and Peas, Tuna
    • 100% Juice and Fresh, Canned and Frozen Fruits & Vegetables
    • Baby Foods and Infant Formula
  • Height and weight checkups
  • Iron testing for your child
  • Referrals to doctors, dental providers, and public health nurses for immunization and prenatal care along with many other programs to benefit your family. 

WIC helps you buy the foods you and your children need to stay healthy. The WIC foods in your monthly food package are specifically chosen to promote good health, growth, and development. You will be given an eWIC card to buy the WIC approved foods which can be found in the  WIC shopping Guide (English or Spanish).
