Description:: During gestation and the first five years of life, the fetus and baby grow by leaps and bounds. Good nutrition is absolutely crucial to fostering healthy growth and development during these early years of life. WIC ensures that all Moms and babies can access good nutrition, even when money is tight and buying healthy foods is a stretch. The program provides: supplemental foods for optimum growth and development; nutrition and health education, and breastfeeding promotion and support. Program participants receive the supplemental foods by way of a check to pay for permitted items. The program also gives Moms guidance and referrals to other helpful programs. Even though this program has an income eligibility requirement, many working people qualify.
