Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Supplemental Food Program in Destrehan, LA, is dedicated to fostering healthy eating habits among low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. Our mission is to provide essential, nutrient-rich supplemental foods that support growth and development, alongside nutrition education to promote improved dietary practices and overall health. We offer valuable information, support, and encouragement for breastfeeding, and connect families with additional health services. If you qualify through the Louisiana Medicaid Program, SNAP, TANF, LA CHIP, or LA MOMS benefits, you meet the income requirements for WIC, ensuring that caregivers of young children can access our vital resources.
