Breastfeeding
WIC provides education, encouragement, and support to mothers who wish to breastfeed. Through the Breastfeeding Peer Counseling Program, moms learn about breastfeeding and receive support if needed. The breastfeeding peers talk with moms in the office and by phone, and are available by cell phone outside of normal business hours.


The Official WIC program is available to low to moderate income pregnant women, recently delivered women, breastfeeding women, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at nutrition risk. Fathers can also bring their children to apply for WIC. You may apply for WIC if you are working or unemployed. Check the Income Guidelines Table to see if you are eligible for WIC. This website was created for women looking for WIC information and locations. We are also working towards adding other locations and services that may help out women.
