Women, Infants and Children (WIC)

Women, Infants and Children (WIC) in Harvey, LA, is dedicated to fostering healthy food habits among low-income pregnant and postpartum women, as well as infants and children up to five years old. Our program offers essential supplemental foods rich in nutrients vital for growth and development, combined with comprehensive nutrition education aimed at enhancing dietary and health practices. We provide valuable support for breastfeeding, ensuring that mothers have the resources and encouragement they need. Additionally, WIC connects families to health services, promoting overall well-being. If you participate in Louisiana Medicaid, SNAP, TANF, LA CHIP, or LA MOMS, you may already qualify for our services. Caregivers of young children are also encouraged to apply, and WIC welcomes all without requiring proof of citizenship or alien status, standing as a community pillar of support and nourishment for families in need.
