Sagadahoc and Lincoln County WIC Program

About this clinic

WIC is a federally funded supplemental food and nutrition education program for pregnant and post-partum women, infants, and children up to the age of five. WIC Nutrition Counselors provide nutrition education, breastfeeding counseling, and referral to a variety of programs related to family health and well-being. Participants receive supplemental food vouchers that enable them to purchase WIC approved foods such as fruit juice, milk, infant formula, cereals, cheese, peanut butter, beans and tuna. The WIC program also has a Breastfeeding Peer Counseling component to assist post-partum women in meeting their breastfeeding goals.
