Thousands of families in the YK region receive benefits from the Women, Infants & Children (WIC) program – and many more are eligible.
Benefits include access to supplemental foods, information on breastfeeding and healthy eating, and referrals to other health care services.
If you are a pregnant person or parent or guardian of children under age 5, you likely qualify for WIC.
