About this clinic

The WIC program is a federal food and nutrition program that acts as an adjunct to prenatal and pediatric health care. The goal of WIC is to eliminate nutritional deficiency as a contributing factor in neonatal death, low birth weight, and other significant health problems of children and pregnant or breastfeeding mothers. Eligible women and children receive breastfeeding support, nutrition counseling and education, and nutritious foods to supplement and improve their diet. These foods may include milk, whole grains, cheese, eggs, juice, peanut butter, dry beans and peas, and infant formula if necessary.
